[Matplotlib-users] LineCollection: multiple ways of setting colors?

2010-06-08 Thread Jorge Scandaliaris
Hi, I am working with collection of lines, and when trying to set the color of each individual lines I found that you can either use a 'color' or colors' (note the 's') argument to LineCollection() to accomplish the same, but that there's only a set_color() method you can call. Is this intended?

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Custom data transformations with log ticks

2010-06-08 Thread Michael Droettboom
The problem is that the LogLocator expects the data to be non-log-transformed, since it is providing the log transform itself. It actually is doing the right thing since the data passed to plot ranges from 1 to 4. As a workaround, you can manually set the ticks with set_xticks,

Waléria, I repeat, you need to add parentheses for the denominator of that quantity in order to match what you wrote out on paper. You are missing a set of parentheses that is causing (3e14**2) to be *multiplied* rather than divided. This explains the huge values you are getting. Ben Root On
