Re: [Matplotlib-users] [SciPy-user] (Mac) Close a plot window, crash IPython?
hi, i observed a similar problem that persists in matplotlib 0.90.1 (python 2.5, numpy 1.0.1, ipython 0.7.3). the problem occurs when a window is closed and it seems to be specific to the non-interactive mode using the GTK or GTKAgg backend. the following short script runs ok once, but when i try to run it a second time, python hangs: # start script import pylab as P P.ioff() P.figure() P.close() # stop script this is probably a problem of matplotlib and we should continue this thread on the matplotlib email list. cheers, kilian From: John Hunter [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: July 13, 2007 1:10:35 PM PDT To: SciPy Users List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [SciPy-user] (Mac) Close a plot window, crash IPython?

[Matplotlib-users] Core-dump when (mis)using scale_transform
Hi,
I've been using matplotlib for a little while and am finding it very
useful. Yesterday, though, I hit a problem:
Because I didn't read the docs properly, I tried to use
matplotlib.transforms.scale_transform
like this:
t = scale_transform(1.0, 2.0)
but then I got a core-dump when trying to use it:
from matplotlib.transforms import scale_transform
t = scale_transform(1.0, 2.0)
print t.xy_tup((1.0, 0.2))
What I should have done was this, which works:
from matplotlib.transforms import scale_transform, Value
t = scale_transform(Value(1.0), Value(2.0))
print t.xy_tup((1.0, 0.2))
The function _transforms_module::new_affine() in _transforms.cpp does
contain checks that its args are LazyValue objects, but it seems to
ignore the results. The following patch (against 0.90.1) makes the
constructor throw a TypeError if it doesn't get what it wants. (It also
fixes a small typo in a separate error string.)

Would this be worth applying? By the look of the code in transform.py,
translation_transform() and possibly others might be affected by this
too. Maybe a better solution might be to automatically construct Value
objects from Python floats where required, but that might need a bit
more thought.
Ben.

[Matplotlib-users] Question about default value for 'emit' in set_[xy]lim()
Hi, The normal rectangular Axes class and the derived PolarAxes class both have set_xlim() and set_ylim() functions, but the rectangular Axes class has a default value of False for the 'emit' argument, whereas the PolarAxes version has True. I had a figure containing three Axes instances, arranged as one 'main' plot and two subsidiary plots. I wanted the subsidiary plots to have their x- and y-limits slaved to changes in the main plot's, but with the current default value of 'emit', I wasn't getting callbacks when I used the navigation toolbar to pan/zoom around the main plot. Would there be any disadvantage to changing the default value to True, as in the patch below? (I haven't looked at all callers of set_xlim() so I could well be missing a good reason why this isn't currently done.)

Re: [Matplotlib-users] ImportError: matplotlib/ft2font.so: undefined symbol: PyUnicodeUCS4_GetSize
I recently ran into a similar problem myself building stuff from source, but I'm not sure of the specifics with SuSE and their packages etc. Python can be configured in two ways -- with two-byte (UCS2) or four-byte (UCS4) Unicode characters. Apparently the default for a source installation of Python is UCS2, but many (most) Linux distributions build it for UCS4. Python extensions built for one configuration can not be used with a Python built for the other configuration. When Python extensions are built, if all goes well, they will match the configuration of the Python interpreter. It looks like somehow you have a mismatch between matplotlib and your Python interpreter. If you installed everything from packages, I would expect them all to match (unless SuSE's quality control has really gone down as of late ;). Perhaps something is still around from when you built things from source. Did you at any point build your own Python? On a number of Linux distributions (probably including SuSE, but I don't know for sure), things installed from source are under the /usr/local tree. To diagnose this, you could see if anything is getting pulled in from there (rather than from the packaged stuff, which wouldn't be under /usr/local). For instance whereis python, will tell you which python is being used. When you import a Python module, you can use __file__ to see where it was imported from. For example: import pylab pylab.__file__ Hope that at least offers some next steps for tracking this down.

[Matplotlib-users] Difference in Axes.hlines / Axes.vlines
Hi,
There is a difference in the behaviour of Axes.hlines() vs
Axes.vlines(), in that vlines() lets you supply scalars for ymin and
ymax, whereas hlines() doesn't (for xmin and xmax). The patch below
fixes that, and also what looks like a separate bug in vlines. There
are also other differences, around units, but I haven't worked with that
area of matplotlib so will leave that for others.
I was wondering, though, whether there'd be any support for some work
which tidied up the near-duplicate code in axes.py. I've been playing
around with an approach using python's metaclass support, which, for
example, would replace the definitions of the two near-identical
functions set_xscale() and set_yscale() with the one meta-definition:
@MC_Traited.construct_traited_variants
def set__AXISLETTER_scale(self, value, base_AXISLETTER_ = 10,
subs_AXISLETTER_ = None):
SET_%(axis_letter_UC)sSCALE(value, base%(axis_letter)s = 10,
subs%(axis_letter)s = None)
Set the %(axis_letter)s-scaling: 'log' or 'linear'
If value is 'log', the additional kwargs have the following meaning
* base%(axis_letter)s: base of the logarithm
* subs%(axis_letter)s: a sequence of the location of the minor
ticks;
None defaults to autosubs, which depend on the number of
decades in the plot. Eg for base 10, subs%(axis_letter)s = (1,
2, 5) will
put minor ticks on 1, 2, 5, 11, 12, 15, 21,
To turn off minor ticking, set subs%(axis_letter)s = []
ACCEPTS: ['log' | 'linear']
assert(value.lower() in ('log', 'linear'))
my_axis = _TRAITS_.my_axis(self)
if value == 'log':
my_axis.set_major_locator(LogLocator(base_AXISLETTER_))
my_axis.set_major_formatter(LogFormatterMathtext(base_AXISLETTER_))
my_axis.set_minor_locator(LogLocator(base_AXISLETTER_,
subs_AXISLETTER_))
_TRAITS_.get_my_func(self.transData).set_type(LOG10)
minval, maxval = _TRAITS_.get_my_lim(self)
if min(minval, maxval) = 0:
self.autoscale_view()
elif value == 'linear':
my_axis.set_major_locator(AutoLocator())
my_axis.set_major_formatter(ScalarFormatter())
my_axis.set_minor_locator(NullLocator())
my_axis.set_minor_formatter(NullFormatter())
_TRAITS_.get_my_func(self.transData).set_type(IDENTITY)
I haven't quite worked through the details, but it looks like it would
cut nearly 400 lines off axes.py (while adding c.200 lines of supporting
code), as well as avoid the type of inconsistency seen in hlines/vlines.
If there's interest, I'll post what I've got so far for comments.
Thanks,
Ben.

[Matplotlib-users] Problem to show new plots.
Hello,
I wrote a message some weeks ago about a problem I have with pylab,
but I think I probably did not explained it very well.
I am witting a small application that use tkFileDialog to prompt user
to select a file.
Then reads it and plot the data.
I want that the user could be able to press a key and read another
file, to plot it again together with the previous one(s). The problem
is that the thee graph is not drawn until I resize the window. Even
if I use the draw() method.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Angel.
code:
import sys
import os
import time
import tkFileDialog
import pylab
pylab.hold(1)
path='E:\\Nima'
n=0
def click(event):
print 'click on: ', event.xdata, event.ydata
def keyp(event):
global path
if event.key.lower()=='o':
fin = tkFileDialog.askopenfilename(initialdir=path)
path=os.path.split(fin)[0]
plot2(fin)
def plot2(fin):
global myplot
global n
f=file(fin, 'r')
lines=f.readlines()
f.close()
X=[]
Y=[]
for line in lines[1:]:
line=line.replace(',', '.')
X.append(float(line.split('\t')[2]))
Y.append(float(line.split('\t')[5]))

Thanks for catching that -- I recently introduced this bug when I

I'm disinclined to use python black magic -- I find it makes the code
harder to grok for the typical scientist, and these are our main
developers. Most of these guys are still trying to figure out what a
class is wink
But there are other ways to reduce code duplication that are not as clever
def set_xscale(self, value, basex = 10, subsx=None):
self._set_scale(axis=self.xaxis,
transfunc=self.transData.get_funcx(),
limfunc=self.get_xlim,

def _set_scale(self, axis, transfunc, limfunc, value, basex = 10, subsx=None):

if value == 'log':
axis.set_major_locator(mticker.LogLocator(base))
axis.set_major_formatter(mticker.LogFormatterMathtext(base))
axis.set_minor_locator(mticker.LogLocator(base,subsx))
transfunc.set_type(mtrans.LOG10)
minx, maxx = limfunc()
if min(minx, maxx)=0:
self.autoscale_view()
elif value == 'linear':
axis.set_major_locator(mticker.AutoLocator())
axis.set_major_formatter(mticker.ScalarFormatter())
axis.set_minor_locator(mticker.NullLocator())
axis.set_minor_formatter(mticker.NullFormatter())
transfunc.set_type( mtrans.IDENTITY )
which I definitely encourage. There may be something more elegant
than this, but we only try to be a little clever. Get too clever, and
Darren and Eric will yell at you.

This is typically caused when the install process detects that pytz and dateutil are already installed, and so doesn't overright them. My guess is that they were available in your PYTHONPATH at install time but not at run time. So at install time they are detected and not installed, but at run time they cannot be found. If this is the solution, you need to build and run in the same environment, or blow away existing copies of pytz and dateutil whereever they are lurking and then reinstall mpl. Use the __file__ module attr to poke around and see if you can find them.
