Hello all, I would like to submit the following branch on github for review and merging into matplotlib trunk:
http://github.com/ellisonbg/matplotlib/commits/guisupport This branch implements the logic needed for the qt4 and wx backends to fully work with the upcoming IPython 0.11 release. In our testing we have run many of the mpl examples (including the new animation examples) in both qt4/wx in both the terminal based IPython and the new IPython Qt GUI. For background on these changes please see this thread: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=AANLkTik2SNtXMaezCc0UiMnCYg6LxwEL1eN9YASnmOua%40mail.gmail.com&forum_name=matplotlib-devel It is important to note that we have not updated the other matplotlib backends (gtk, tk, etc.) to have this logic. This is mainly because we know almost nothing about these toolkits and could really use some help from folks who are experts at the respective toolkits. We have done some minimal testing and these other backends do work for simple examples in the terminal IPython, but they won't work in all cases and will definitely not work in the new IPython Qt based GUI. We would love feedback and help testing as these changes are significant (even though only a few lines of code). To test this stuff you will need to grab the following IPython development branch: http://github.com/ipython/ipython/tree/newkernel You should be able to run the examples in regular ipython: ipython --pylab qt4|wx Or the new GUI ipythonqt --pylab qt4|wx Cheers, Brian ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net Dev2Dev email is sponsored by: Show off your parallel programming skills.
