actually, I think matpoltlib.pyplot still has all of pylab in it, just not all of numpy also. So yes, do that, but what I meant was to focus on using the OO interface, rather than the state machine interface: rather than 'gca', 'gcf', etc, store references to the figures and axis, etc: this kind of thing: fig = plt.Figure() ax = fig.add_subplot(111) ax.plot([1,2,3]) ax.set_title('hi mom') ax.grid(True) ax.set_xlabel('time') ax.set_ylabel('volts') While we are at it, discourage the use of "import *" ! -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 chris.bar...@noaa.gov ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Matplotlib-users mailing list Matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/matplotlib-users
