Hi: I obtain the following error when saving a figure to postscript after running one of the test routines in mplot3d.py:
>>> from numpy import *; import mpl3d.mplot3d as p3; import pylab as p >>> p3.test1() >>> p.savefig('test1') Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/pylab.py", line 811, in savefig return fig.savefig(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/figure.py", line 660, in savefig self.canvas.print_figure(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/backends/backend_ps.py", line 1061, in print_figure self.figure.draw(renderer) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/figure.py", line 531, in draw for a in self.axes: a.draw(renderer) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/mpl3d/mplot3d.py", line 714, in draw self.w_xaxis.draw(renderer) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/mpl3d/mplot3d.py", line 613, in draw tick.draw(renderer) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/axis.py", line 161, in draw if self.label1On: self.label1.draw(renderer) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/text.py", line 1166, in draw self.update_coords(renderer) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/mpl3d/mplot3d.py", line 411, in update_coords return text_update_coords(self, renderer) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/mpl3d/mplot3d.py", line 102, in text_update_coords we = self._mytext.get_window_extent(renderer=renderer) AttributeError: TextWithDash instance has no attribute '_mytext' I installed matplotlib-0.87.3 and mpl3d yesterday and today. After a bit of hunting, I noticed there are two similar definitions of TextWithDash in matplotlib's text.py: _TextWithDash and TextWithDash. Noting the underscored version defines _mytext but the underscore-free version does not, I switched the underscores. Now things are working (though perhaps I've broken something else in the process). I suspect the error is a product of on-going changes to matplotlib; nonetheless, I thought my email might be helpful to others.
