[Matplotlib-users] Missing dll in windows build 0.87.4
I am trying to run Matplotlib 0.87.4 on WinXP after having installed from the binaries posted on sourceforge. Unfortunately, when I try importing from pylab, I get a popup declaring:This application has failed to start because MSVCP71.dll was not found.I usually work on Mac/Linux, so I have no idea what this means. Here is the traceback.Traceback (most recent call last): File stdin, line 1, in ?

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Weird resizing issue
I see weird behaviour like this in Windows too. In my case, the horizontal size of the plot window increases as the pointer is moved inside a plot region. i.e. the aspect ratio of the window changes erratically, I think between two sizes. Sometimes it remains at the incorrect shape when the mouse pointer is shifted outside the plot area and sometimes it pops back to the correct shape. Is this the behaviour you see? I don't know how to avoid it. I noticed that shifting the pointer out of the plot area by moving through the bottom of the window seems to avoid the possibility of the window remaining with the incorrect aspect. I seem to remember seeing this behaviour on an old version of matplotlib. I thought it disappeared and has perhaps returned. My memory is hazy on this. Gary R. Tommy Grav wrote: I am using matplotlib to display a couple of fits-images and then use the mouse to select a source in the image. However, when I click on the window containing the image to get it into focus the window starts resizing itself based on the movement of the mouse. I am on a mac with OS 10.4 and are using TkAgg. Has anyone seen this before and know how to avoid it from happening? Cheers Tommy - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] histogram bug
More information on this bug: on my WinXP laptop, it seems to only manifest under some circumstances. When running the script from inside SciTE or ipython, it seems more or less repeatable (sometimes it won't show on the first run but does from then on), but if the .py file is run directly from the windows explorer, it doesn't show up. On my win98 desktop, however, it shows up regardless. Gary Ruben wrote: Note: I just verified that this was introduced into 0.87.4. 0.87.3 doesn't exhibit the problem. See attachment. Gary R.
