Re: [matplotlib-devel] AGG site down?

2014-08-03 Thread Benjamin Root
Thanks for that information. I am putting together a PR that corrects those
links and also makes a few other small documentation changes. Hopefully,
this will be the last change needed for v1.4.0!

Cheers!
Ben Root

[matplotlib-devel] Polygon vs. Patch

2014-08-03 Thread Benjamin Root
This might be a stupid question, but what is the difference between a
Polygon and  Patch? A Polygon is subclassed from a Patch. The only real
substantial difference I see is that a Polygon object has logic flagging
and ensuring that it has a closed ring, but does that really merit a whole
new class?

What makes things even more confusing is that RegularPolygon and
CirclePolygon are not even subclassed from Polygon.

I wonder if we might want to consider folding in some of Polygon's
functionality into Patch, and simply let Polygon be an alias for Patch
(after all, a polygon is usually what people think of when they really want
a patch).

Just a thought.

Cheers!
Ben Root

No, a Patch is not automatically a Polygon. You could make a Patch out of
splines or Bezier curves, for example.

Cheers,
Stefan
