[Matplotlib-users] ANN: SciPy 2009 student sponsorship
I am pleased to announce that the Python Software Foundation is sponsoring 10 students' travel, registration, and accommodation for the SciPy 2009 conference (Aug. 18-23). The focus of the conference is both on scientific libraries and tools developed with Python and on scientific or engineering achievements using Python. If you're in college or a graduate program, please check out the details here: http://conference.scipy.org/student-funding About the conference SciPy 2009, the 8th Python in Science conference, will be held from August 18-23, 2009 at Caltech in Pasadena, CA, USA. The conference starts with two days of tutorials to the scientific Python tools. There will be two tracks, one for introduction of the basic tools to beginners, and one for more advanced tools. The tutorials will be followed by two days of talks. Both days of talks will begin with a keynote address. The first day’s keynote will be given by Peter Norvig, the Director of Research at Google; while, the second keynote will be delivered by Jon Guyer, a Materials Scientist in the Thermodynamics and Kinetics Group at NIST. The program committee will select the remaining talks from submissions to our call for papers. All selected talks will be included in our conference proceedings edited by the program committee. After the talks each day we will provide several rooms for impromptu birds of a feather discussions. Finally, the last two days of the conference will be used for a number of coding sprints on the major software projects in our community. For the 8th consecutive year, the conference will bring together the developers and users of the open source software stack for scientific computing with Python. Attendees have the opportunity to review the available tools and how they apply to specific problems. By providing a forum for developers to share their Python expertise with the wider commercial, academic, and research communities, this conference fosters collaboration and facilitates the sharing of software components, techniques, and a vision for high level language use in scientific computing. For further information, please visit the conference homepage: http://conference.scipy.org. Important Dates --- * Friday, July 3: Abstracts Due * Friday, July 10: Announce accepted talks, post schedule * Friday, July 10: Early Registration ends * Tuesday-Wednesday, August 18-19: Tutorials * Thursday-Friday, August 20-21: Conference * Saturday-Sunday, August 22-23: Sprints * Friday, September 4: Papers for proceedings due Executive Committee --- * Jarrod Millman, UC Berkeley, USA (Conference Chair) * Gaël Varoquaux, INRIA Saclay, France (Program Co-Chair) * Stéfan van der Walt, University of Stellenbosch, South Africa (Program Co-Chair) * Fernando Pérez, UC Berkeley, USA (Tutorial Chair) -- ___ Matplotlib-users mailing list Matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/matplotlib-users
Re: [Matplotlib-users] setting figure font to helvetica
per freem perfr...@gmail.com writes: i am trying to use the Helvetica font on matplotlib. i am using mac os x (so i definitely have helvetica installed) It might be in a format that matplotlib doesn't really handle. However, Helvetica is one of the core fonts in PDF so if you set pdf.use14corefonts to True, you should be able to use Helvetica, and the reader application will supply the font (or approximate it with something else). This is deprecated in the latest version of the spec, but it should work just fine. i verified that plt.rcParams gets modified to use 'Helvetica' as the value for font.family, etc. but i still get the default font used in all of these figures. I just wanted to add: if i simply set the font to Arial, using rc('font',**{'family':'sans-serif','sans-serif':['Arial']}) then it works. But the same call with Helvetica still defaults to that Bitstream/default font of matplotlib. any idea why this might be? could matplotlib be confusing helvetica with bitstream? The font-selection system is somewhat complicated. I suggest running your script with --verbose-debug with both Arial and Helvetica as the value of font.sans-serif, and diffing the outputs to see what is going on. I suspect that Arial is a TTF file while Helvetica is in some Mac-specific format. The best solution would be to make matplotlib handle those formats, but probably the most practical solution is to use something like fondu to convert the font into TTF: http://fondu.sourceforge.net/ -- Jouni K.

[Matplotlib-users] Dynamic plotting?
Hi list I've been asked to transform my app to something more dynamic it currently reads an xml file, it has now to read a stream of xml from a socket (I can handle this part :D) and plot each point as they are coming from the network. I'll end up having tons of points over multiple axes; I guess doing sonething like fig.plot(concat(old-data,new-point)) would be rather inefficient and I wonder if someone ever made something like this using matplotlib? or any hints on where to start from? thanks :) This message contains confidential information and may contain information that is legally privileged.

[Matplotlib-users] subplots with no space between limited to 6x6?
Hi, I'm trying to make a large grid of subplots with no spacing between.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] subplots with no space between limited to 6x6?
Yes, I can reproduce this with the current svn. I think what's happening is that, with larger number of grid, there is slight overlapping between each subplots (likely due to the floating point error). Note that subplot command deletes existing axes if they overlap with the new one. There would be several work-arounds. You may use non-zero spacing, eg, 0.001 worked for me. Or, you may manually add subplots to the figure to avoid any deletion of existing axes. from matplotlib.axes import Subplot fig = gcf() subplots_adjust(hspace=0.,wspace=0.) for i in xrange(1,65): ax = Subplot(fig, 8, 8, i) fig.add_subplot(ax) plot( [0,1] ) Regards, -JJ On Mon, Jun 29, 2009 at 10:29 AM, keflavichkeflav...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, I'm trying to make a large grid of subplots with no spacing between.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Zooming plot and transforms...
I think the issue here is to connect points in two different axes, which is possible but can be a bit difficult. In the svn version of matplotlib, there are some helper classes to ease this job a bit. I'm attaching the example. I think you can also run the example with 0.98.5.3.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] setting figure font to helvetica
more information on this. if i try to use pdf.use14corefonts, like was suggested by Jouni, as follows: from scipy import * import matplotlib matplotlib.use('PDF') from matplotlib import rc import matplotlib.pyplot as plt rc('font',**{'family':'sans-serif','sans-serif':['Helvetica']}) rc('pdf', use14corefonts=True) then when i open the generated pdf in adobe illustrator i get the error: The font Helvetica-Narrow contains a bad /BBox. -- then no labels are shown in the graph, only the nontextual elements.

[Matplotlib-users] Detecting whether a click occurs on a text object
I am developing an application in which I would like the user to be able to click on a chart and have the application detect whether the click has occurred over a specific piece of text. For example, I have multiple lines on a chart with two y-axes, and I have the titles of the series stacked up at the top of the chart. I would like the user to be able to click one of the titles which would then cause the corresponding series to switch to the other axis. Unfortunately I still cannot figure how to retrieve the area that a piece of text fills on the chart. (in case it makes a difference, note that the chart can be resized at any time, so the pixel coordinates of the text could change at any time).
