Calling cla or clf in the animation loop is probably always a bad idea, because of the flashing you have noticed. Trying to use a simple python loop called from the main level doesn't play nicely with the GUI event loop and will fail in most cases. I have written all of the animation examples in the matplotlib/examples/animation directory to avoid a main level python loop. Ideally, you should use your GUI idle handler to trigger the animation update. http://matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/matplotlib/trunk/matplotlib/examples/animation/ I have spent some time trying to abstract this across the different GUIs we support to make this easier on users, but have been stymied...
