This is good news Eric and sounds like the desired behaviour. Thanks for letting me know. I was intending to try to work it out this weekend but have spent my time instead learning to build numpy/scipy/matplotlib from source - a worthwhile exercise. I don't think JDH/Charlie should wait for new quiver plots before doing another release.
On the scaled down arrows, do you see strange artifacts when viewing at certain magnifications? JDH thought this might be due to subpixel rendering problems, although I wasn't sure that was the reason. I look forward to seeing how the transform stuff works. I found it all a bit unfathomable. thanks, Gary Eric Firing wrote: > Jordan, Gary, > > I have been working on another implementation of quiver functionality.
