Just to be clear -- this sounds like a MacPorts problem, not necessarily an OS-X problem. > I finally have the WXagg backend > working, but that required installed WXPython with the gtk/X11 backend. Does MacPorts not allow a native wx? Maybe becasue you're running 64 bit? Anyway, I guess that's why I don't use macports for python. >> In any case, I have been having royal problems with GUI backends and >> matplotlib. >> Some background on where I've been having these problems: >> Machine 1: OSX 10.5.8 G5 PPC That's what I've been running, and I've had no real issues (Haven't tried the OS-X back-end) -- but I'm using the python.org python. >> Machine 2: OSX 10.5.7 Macbook pro/Intel >> Code versions: python 2.5.4, Numpy 1.3.0, Scipy 0.7.0 (all obtained through >> fink.) OK -- then a fink issue, rather than a Macports one -- same idea, though. My impression is that neither fink nor macports do well with Mac GUI stuff -- unless you're talking X11. -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
