I would need to create a timeline for a Latex document (eps output). There may be other tools besides Matplotlib and I am open to suggestions. But I were going to use mpl, what would it take to do something along these lines: http://www.timelinemaker.com/product-samplecharts-constructiontimeline.html
Basically, I would need a nicely formatted dates along the x-axis and then lightly colored rectangles with text in them. The width would show when I anticipate some part of the project starting and ending. The y coordinate of the rectangle would used to allow project portions to overlap. It would be nice but not essential if the rectangles had a little fade in and out in their back ground color instead of a solid color, but that is not essential. Is there a clean way to do this with mpl? Thanks, Ryan ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
