This is not an urgent project. I'm going to finish work on the canvas objects first, and use them for a couple of applications such as a 2D mesh slicer and a multiple peak fitter. It will be a couple of months before we need to address log scales. I wonder if it is worth refactoring the code with the idea of allowing transforms to be implemented in Python+Numpy. It will mean redoing data structures so that vertices for things like line collections and tic marks are stored in dense arrays which can be transformed en masse rather than point by point. I haven't looked closely enough to see how ambitious this proposal would be. - Paul ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
