The error is really: in set_units self.callbacks.process('units finalize') in process func(*args, **kwargs) in relim self._update_line_limits(line) and that's where it wants the LineCollection to have get_xdata What's really odd about this is that we're clearing the axis - the LineCollection should be irrelevant then! I do remember something with the auto-limits and LineCollections when I first started messing with this, but I don't remember what. Sorry we haven't been able to duplicate this in a small sample yet. Anyone have any ideas? -Chris Here's the whole traceback: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/cbarker/HAZMAT/3d/TABS/TabsDataPanels.py", line 688, in PlotProfile int(self.DataSelector.BotBin) ) File "/Users/cbarker/HAZMAT/3d/TABS/TabsDataPanels.py", line 351, in PlotProfile ax.clear() File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/axes.py", line 725, in clear self.cla() File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/axes.py", line 670, in cla self.xaxis.cla() File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/axis.py", line 563, in cla self.set_units(None) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/axis.py", line 859, in set_units self.callbacks.process('units finalize') File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/cbook.py", line 83, in process func(*args, **kwargs) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/axes.py", line 1104, in relim self._update_line_limits(line) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/axes.py", line 1064, in _update_line_limits xdata = line.get_xdata(orig=False) AttributeError: VectorLineCollection instance has no attribute 'get_xdata' -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
