It's a very good idea, when posting questions to a list like this, to ask not only the specific question, but also give the background, so we can wee what problem you are trying to solve.

However, you've left out a key point: what GUI toolkit are you using? There is no such thing as a python "image", but each toolkit has it's own implementation, so each needs to be treated differently.

If you are using something else, then take a look at the various back-end codes -- one of them is probably similar enough to yous to give you inspiration. And yes, you can get a string or buffer object of RBG data from FigureCanvasAgg. > I want to know , can I accomplish > this without using PIL , You shouldn't need PIL. -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
