Thank you very much Steve! This helped a lot, it worked in the ipython as well, there is no difference, only that the ipython is interactive and has more supplementary features. :)

Attached is how I solved it in normal python. I added a "next line" button to the graph, and set the ydata for the line each time the button is pushed. There is a couple of set_ylim lines commented out, depending on the nature of your data, it might be appropriate to uncomment one of those, however the set_aspect line may might mean the graph is very tall and skinny with the supplied data. Hope that gives you some ideas for your own code.

I am using matplotlib to debug a computational geometry code and I would like these lines to plot paused by the user input so that I can identify when (where) exactly the wrong calculations happen: import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt fig1 = plt.figure() ax1 = fig1.add_subplot(111) ax1.set_aspect("equal") for line in data: raw_input("press enter to plot the line") ax1.plot([line[0],line[2]],[line[1],line[3]],'b') plt.draw() This way I could see with pressing e.g. the return key when my calculations go wrong.... any advice? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
