This is a bug -- thanks for reporting it. I just committed changes to
svn to fix it.

It is a bug. I don't know how or when it was introduced. I can fix it 
in svn later today.

Hi, I am running some code which used to work a couple of months ago,
but now fails on the "axis" command which does not seem to accept
keyword arguments any longer (current version 0.87.7 from Fedora
Extras, previous version probably 0.87.4 or so). Traceback is
below...
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Marcel

Hi
have a Python application using matplotlib installed on a windows machine 
using PY2EXE. Am having some problems because the application appears to 
be writing some temporary files to C:\ but users do not have permission to 
write to this directory. It looks like matplotlib is writing the temporary 
files - can I supress these files? If not, how do I "tell" matplotlib to 
write somewhere else (eg C:\windows\temp)? Thanks in advance

Not to be picky, but those are technically TeX commands. usetex uses LaTeX, 
which will accept these TeX font commands, but in a few cases they give 
results that are not ideal. Better to use the LaTeX versions: \textrm, 
\textsf, etc.

You can't (easily )get Ariel, but you can get a SanSerif font.
\rm{} means "Roman Font"
you want:
\sf{} (Sans Serif Font)

NOTE: I've never used this with MPL, but that's the LaTeX way.

Arial fonts are not supported by latex. Beyond that, I can't be of much help 
without a brief example.

Is there a way to get latex to use Ariel font and not italic? If I use 
the \rm{} command I can get rid of italic, but it is using a serif font 
and I cannot find any documentation on how to change that font.
Thanks,
Lane Brooks

Arg, sorry, stupid question, I didn't use valid limits.

Hi all,
I need to set texts on figures in axis coords, not data coords. 
Following "text" doc, transform=ax.transAxes seems not working :
######################
|~|[32]>ax=subplot(111)
|~|[33]>text( 0.0, 1.0, 'text1', transform=ax.transData, color='r' )
Out [33]:<matplotlib.text.Text instance at 0xb487fbec>
|~|[34]>text( 1.0, 1.0, 'text2', transform=ax.transAxes, color='b' )
Out [34]:<matplotlib.text.Text instance at 0xb488298c>
######################
gives figure in the attached picture. Text2 must be out of figure, not here!
An idea?
thanks
