[Fairly new at matplotlib, but very happy with it so far] Is it possible to retrieve images rendered by one of the backends as an object, rather than just saving to a file?
Specifically, I need to render graphs to SVG code, that I can turn into a DOM object for further manipulation. I can save to a temp file and immediately reload it into a DOM, but that is cumbersome in a single program. The only place I can see to generate rendered output is savefig(). There is a reference in the documentation to using a file-like object with the Cairo backend. Is that the only possibility? If so, any ideas on a workaround other than temp files? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/rendered-objects-%28esp.-SVG%29-tf4952354.html#a14180802 Sent from the matplotlib - users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
