I used the binary installer for windows that you can download from 
Sourceforge.net
In fact, the thing is strange: I developed a program which displays a 
map at the end. A simple one but it worked. I didn't use it for some 
time. Today I used it again and: it didn't for anymore. I only got that 
strange error.
May I have a module conflict?
Please tell be if you need more information.
Kind regards & thanks for your quick response.

+1 for adding this feature if it's not already available!

Hello everyone,
I do not understand why the attached script fails one of my assertion 
checks. I do not seem to understand pylab.meshgrid and numpy arrays.
I looked at contour_demo.py in the basemap examples, but I have somehow 
missed my mistake.
Could someone elaborate.
Thanks,

P.S.
FWIW, my system is:
Python 2.5 (r25:51908, Sep 19 2006, 09:52:17) [MSC v.1310 32 bit 
(Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
 >>> import matplotlib
 >>> matplotlib.__version__
'0.91.2'

Hello,
Is there an easy way to turn the box of an axis off, but only the top 
and right lines, keeping the bottom and left lines of the axis 
visible? I'd like to make a plot that has an x and y axis, but not a 
complete box around the data.
thanks,
		Brian Blais

Dear All,
I am concerned there could be a bug in errorplot for pylab.
I am running Debian testing (the amd64 release) on my box.
Some time ago I posted about a possible bug in pylab and the
workaround I found (since I prefer to use Debian repositories rather
than matplotlib CVS version) was to add a clf() command at the end of
the figure.
Consider the following plot (taken directly from my code):
p.plot(time[ini_conf:fin_conf],my_fractal_dim,"k^")
p.xlabel('Dimensionless Time',fontsize=20)
labels = p.getp(p.gca(), 'xticklabels')
p.setp(labels, color='k', fontsize=15)
p.ylabel('Fractal Dimension',fontsize=20)
labels2 = p.getp(p.gca(), 'yticklabels')
p.setp(labels2, color='k', fontsize=15)
#p.legend(('from power-law fitting','from linear fitting on log-log'))
#p.title('Evolution Fractal Dimension')
p.grid(False)
 #cluster_name="number_cluster_vs_time2%05d"%my_config
cluster_name="Evolution_fractal_dimension-no-mean.pdf"
p.savefig(cluster_name)
p.hold(False)
p.clf()
print 'delta_df is,', delta_df
print 'my_fractal_dim is,', my_fractal_dim
#p.errorbar(time[ini_conf:fin_conf],my_fractal_dim,yerr=delta_df,marker='s',mfc='red',
mec='green', ms=20, mew=4 )
p.errorbar(time[ini_conf:fin_conf],my_fractal_dim,yerr=delta_df )
p.xlabel('Time')
p.ylabel('Fractal dimension')
#p.legend(('from power-law fitting','from linear fitting on log-log'))
#p.title('Evolution Fractal Dimension from R_g')
#p.grid(True)
 #cluster_name="number_cluster_vs_time2%05d"%my_config
#cluster_name="std_err_D_f.pdf"
p.savefig("time_evolution_D_f_with_error_bars.pdf")
p.hold(False)
p.clf()
I am basically plotting two figures, but errorbar is not returning any
vertical bar giving uncertainties. Instead, if I swap the two plots
(i.e. first the errorbar and then the normal plot) I see a nice plot
with error bars.
This can be quite annoying (it is already tough enough to carry out
computations without thinking about when I should plot what).
Has anyone else experienced anything similar?
Suggestions are really welcome.
Cheers
Lorenzo

Because it includes a module for reading remote datasets over http.
Basemap includes the httplib2 module 
(http://code.google.com/p/httplib2/), but if you're installing from 
source it will only install it if it thinks you don't already have it. 
The simple workaround is to grab it and install it yourself (it's a 
single file, pure-python module). 
If you've used the binary installer, it should definitely have been 
installed - so if that's the case let me know and I'll investigate further.

Why does Basemap need any httplib? I am not needing any remote connection.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks and kind regards,
