Ben and Eric,
Thanks so much for your help!
I'm trying to turn change some of the rcParams in my script... Here is a
test of what happens:
import matplotlib
matplotlib.rcParams['keymap.fullscreen']=''
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<input>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/matplotlib/__init__.py", line 623,
in __setitem__
See rcParams.keys() for a list of valid parameters.'%key)
KeyError: 'keymap.fullscreen is not a valid rc parameter.See
rcParams.keys() for a list of valid parameters.'
It seems that none of the keymap parameters are defined in my rcParams
dictionary...
I also tried adding some of the "keymap" lines out of the online rc file:
http://matplotlib.sf.net/_static/matplotlibrc
to my rc file and it told me: Bad key "keymap.pan"
I've got version 0.99.0 on ubuntu.
Is this a new feature? Do you know what I can try instead??
Thanks!
-David

That completely disables the toolbar, which is likely not what the OP wants.
There are a bunch of rcParams, listed at the bottom of
matplotlibrc_template (and of the default matplotlibrc file that is
installed) that can be used to turn off the key bindings without
disabling the toolbar.
Personally, I think that putting in all those key bindings by default
was a major mistake, one that should be reversed ASAP. Having the plot
jump to fullscreen when one bumps "f" is rude. The first time it
happened I had no idea what was going on or how to recover from it--I
thought maybe my X-server had gone bonkers. And does one actually save a
displayed figure so often that it is useful to have the "s" shortcut to
save one from having to click the toolbar button? I could go on with
this complaint...
