Thanks for your help.

I just found it now it the FAQ.

Can I suggest a couple of things:
A) yes, it looks like PyX is great, powerful, etc. The examples
show this off, but they are 90% useless (who needs curvey axes ???).
They should be renamed "screenshots".
B) how to plot diamonds should not be in the FAQ, it's either in
the examples or in a cookbook. The FAQ (or at least the graph section)
is not an FAQ at all, it's a cookbook.
C) examples should actually cover 90% of what people
want to do. Not gee-whiz demos that nobody can understand anyway.

I don't mean to sound harsh here, but it's been 12months since i
last used PyX and I am hit again with exactly the same impression
as I was last time. I can't make any sense of the architecture of PyX.
If that's the way it's going to be (powerful but difficult to use) then
you need a _lot_ of basic cookbook/example's that people can
take and modify to suite.

Thanks anyway, I hope I can promote PyX more in the future !!

Simon.
