I thought ax.plot(..) would redraw everything (ticks, labels, etc) to do with the plot. I've been using set_data as I thought it was meant to be quicker. self.cline[0].set_data(rX, myabs) # I have to make sure I use correct line :: :: self.canvas.draw() To just change the data associated with a specific line on plot. I stored the lines on my graph in a list called cline, I captured the line at time of creating of the plot r = self.axis.plot( rX, myabs ,self.linestyle, color='b') self.cline.append( r[0] ) - Steve ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
