Re: [Matplotlib-users] Choosing optimal figure width/height automatically
I just realized that I replied to this off-list. Sending back out to the entire list. (Sorry for the duplicate e-mail Christoph!) On Oct 18, 2013 6:11 AM, Christoph Groth christ...@grothesque.org wrote: Joe, thank you very much for your reply. So the figsize of a matplotlib plot is the physical size of the region between the axes where the data is shown? No, your first assumption was correct. figsize refers to the size of the whole figure. What I meant to do in that example was abuse the fact that matplotlib will happily add things beyond the figure boundaries. You can then abuse the bbox_inches kwarg to savefig to show everything, while keeping the size of the data area between the axes boundaries the same as the figsize. My example there is actually completely wrong. I meant to do this: import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt dpi = 80 data = np.random.random((100, 100)) height, width = np.array(data.shape, dtype=float) / dpi fig = plt.figure(figsize=(width, height), dpi=dpi) ax = fig.add_axes([0, 0, 1, 1]) ax.imshow(data, interpolation='none') fig.savefig('test.png', bbox_inches='tight') At any rate, I'm not quite sure if that's actually what you wanted, but it's a useful trick in cases like this. -- October Webinars: Code for Performance Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance.

To install 1.3.1, I had to use the archive from SourceForge directly since only 1.3.0 is listed on pypi (I used pip) -- could that be the source of this issue for you? That's my bad. I've updated the PyPI entry.

It may be downloaded from here, or installed through the package manager of your choice (when available): http://matplotlib.org/downloads 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.
