If the issue was GTK only - it is a known problem with IPython 0.10.1 for which the fix is waiting to be merged here: https://github.com/ipython/ipython/issues/issue/237 but if you think the WX backend is also affected - it might just be that you're not starting ipython with the -pylab flag to get the threading to work without blocking. Can you try starting "ipython -pylab -gthread" and "ipython -pylab -wthread" to see if that fixes the issue? Make sure that you change the backend accordingly - and use plt.get_backend() to ensure the appropriate one is being used. -- Paul Ivanov 314 address only used for lists, off-list direct email at: http://pirsquared.org | GPG/PGP key id: 0x0F3E28F7 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn how Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) One Node allows customers to consolidate database storage, standardize their database environment, and, should the need arise, upgrade to a full multi-node Oracle RAC database without downtime or disruption http://p.sf.net/sfu/oracle-sfdevnl _______________________________________________ Matplotlib-users mailing list Matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/matplotlib-users
