I'm not sure that I understand you correctly. The code I refering is the one which I attached some mails ago. The following works for me: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- from pylab import * from time import sleep ion() # interactive mode 'on' figure() ax = subplot(111, autoscale_on=True) x, y = [0], [0] line = plot(x, y, label="my_data")[0] # get the line-object as the first element # of the tuple returned by plot legend() for i in arange(30): x.append(i) # append new values y.append(i**2) line.set_data(x,y) # reset data ax.relim() # reset axes limits ax.autoscale_view() # rescale axes draw() # redraw current figure sleep(0.3) # wait 0.3 seconds ioff() show() ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- And your mpltest.py works as well for me. best regards Matthias ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
