Thanks.
The tiling manager was the guilty one (I use AWESOME). The set_size
command did not work:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/tmp/py2262sxl", line 45, in <module>
fig.set_size_inches(pylab.rcParams['figure.figsize'], forward='True')
File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/matplotlib/figure.py", line 447, in
set_size_inches
manager.resize(int(canvasw), int(canvash))
TypeError: resize() takes exactly 2 arguments (3 given)
But once I mage have made the figure foating, it took the correct size.
