If I initialize an AxesImage using a np.zeros array and then set the
axes data later to a np.memmap array, I get a RuntimeError when
matplotlib tries to autoscale the image. The errors continue to fill
my console and I'm forced to close the shell. This bug was introduced
when I switched from numpy v1.0.3.1 to the trunk v1.0.5.dev4815
The two hacks to get around this are:
1) Setting any array element to something other than zero fixes the error:
zdata[0,0] = 1
2) Specify the extent and max/min values when creating the image:
imgaxes = pylab.imshow(zdata, extent=(0, data_shape[1],
data_shape[0], 0), vmin=0, vmax=1)
Unfortunately, due to the way this errors I'm having a difficult time
debugging it. I'm hoping someone with in-depth knowledge of
masked_arrays will have some insight.
Code and output are below.
Thanks!
