Re: [matplotlib-devel] matplotlib user guide
Many thanks for the feedback. So ,my first cut was to segregate the user guide by topic. Below is the summary I had in mind for an Introduction for New Users. Hopefully this gives a flavour of what I have in mind. I will attempt to put this into practice and post again when I have a user guide coded that might work in my view. mark Introducing Plotting with Matplotlib Pyplot tutorial Controlling line properties Working with multiple figures and axes Working with text Interactive navigation Navigation Keyboard Shortcuts Working with text Text introduction Basic text commands Text properties and layout Writing mathematical expressions Text rendering With LaTeX Annotating text Image tutorial Startup commands Importing image data into Numpy arrays Plotting numpy arrays as images Customizing Location of Subplot Using GridSpec Basic Example of using subplot2grid GridSpec and SubplotSpec Adjust GridSpec layout GridSpec using SubplotSpec A Complex Nested GridSpec using SubplotSpec GridSpec with Varying Cell Sizes Legend guide What to be displayed Multicolumn Legend Legend location Multiple Legend Legend of Complex Plots Annotating Axes Annotating with Text with Box Annotating with Arrow Placing Artist at the anchored location of the Axes Using Complex Coordinate with Annotation Using ConnectorPatch Zoom effect between Axes Define Custom BoxStyle Our Favorite Recipes Sharing axis limits and views Easily creating subplots Fixing common date annoyances Fill Between and Alpha Transparent, fancy legends Placing text boxes -- October Webinars: Code for Performance Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance.

[matplotlib-devel] 1.3.1rc1 tagged
I have tagged a 1.3.1 release candidate. Congrats to everyone who reported bugs and worked hard to fix them for this release. As this is only a bugfix release, it should hopefully not take as long to get through the release candidate process. I hope to hear from all the packagers over the next week or two, and barring no issues, I will tag this as 1.3.1 final. The tarball is available here: https://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/matplotlib/matplotlib/matplotlib-1.3.1rc1.tar.gz The changelog is copied below: New in 1.3.1 1.3.1 is a bugfix release, primarily dealing with improved setup and handling of dependencies, and correcting and enhancing the documentation. The following changes were made in 1.3.1 since 1.3.0. Enhancements - Added a context manager for creating multi-page pdfs (see `matplotlib.backends.backend_pdf.PdfPages`). - The WebAgg backend should no have lower latency over heterogeneous Internet connections. Bug fixes ` - Histogram plots now contain the endline. - Fixes to the Molleweide projection. - Handling recent fonts from Microsoft and Macintosh-style fonts with non-ascii metadata is improved. - Hatching of fill between plots now works correctly in the PDF backend. - Tight bounding box support now works in the PGF backend. - Transparent figures now display correctly in the Qt4Agg backend. - Drawing lines from one subplot to another now works. - Unit handling on masked arrays has been improved. Setup and dependencies `` - Now works with any version of pyparsing 1.5.6 or later, without displaying hundreds of warnings. - Now works with 64-bit versions of Ghostscript on MS-Windows. - When installing from source into an environment without Numpy, Numpy will first be downloaded and built and then used to build matplotlib. - Externally installed backends are now always imported using a fully-qualified path to the module. - Works with newer version of wxPython. - Can now build with a PyCXX installed globally on the system from source. - Better detection of Gtk3 dependencies. Testing ``` - Tests should now work in non-English locales. - PEP8 conformance tests now report on locations of issues. -- _ |\/|o _|_ _. _ | | \.__ __|__|_|_ _ _ ._ _ | ||(_| |(_|(/_| |_/|(_)(/_|_ |_|_)(_)(_)| | | http://www.droettboom.com -- October Webinars: Code for Performance Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance.

Re: [matplotlib-devel] 1.3.1rc1 tagged
Hello, `matplotlib-1.3.1rc1.tar.gz\matplotlib-1.3.1rc1\lib\matplotlib.egg-info\SOURCES.txt` contains absolute paths to `/usr/src/CXX/*.cxx` files and therefore distutils fails to build installers on Windows. Deleting the .egg-info directory works for me. Christoph On 9/27/2013 10:20 AM, Michael Droettboom wrote: > I have tagged a 1.3.1 release candidate.

Re: [matplotlib-devel] 1.3.1rc1 tagged
Thanks for letting me know -- obviously not good. I'll have a look.

The original bug I think was related to not being able to run the tests. The ps backend should be updated to use the same ghostscript finding routines as elsewhere. I'll get this taken care of for 1.3.1rc2.
