Re: [Matplotlib-users] How can I put a white area in the middle of colorbar showing the masked data?

2014-03-02 Thread ChaoYue
Dear Eric,

This solved part of my problem. thanks a lot.
I think I will revisit this issue when I have time (not promised).
do you think this could be some feature desirable?

Cheers,

Chao

 It's not the answer you want to hear, but I think the correct answer is
 that you should do this via the colormap, and not by masking the low
 values.  It doesn't have to be painful.  If, in contourf, you use a
 diverging colormap with white already in the middle
 (http://matplotlib.org/examples/color/colormaps_reference.html) and a
 norm with symmetric limits (vmin and vmax; you can let them be set
 automatically after you specify your symmetric set of contour boundaries
 appropriately) then it will be done for you.

 e.g.,

 z = 10 * np.random.randn(20, 30)
 clevs = [-10, -5, -2, -1, 1, 2, 5, 10]
 cs = plt.contourf(z, levels=clevs, cmap=plt.get_cmap('PRGn'),
extend='both')
 cbar = plt.colorbar(cs, spacing='uniform')

I don't understand what feature you are referring to; evidently I don't 
understand what the problem is, so I don't know what part remains unsolved.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Matplotlib + py3 + gtk3

2014-03-02 Thread Michael Droettboom
Thanks.  I'd definitely consider this a bug this.  Would you mind 
creating an issue or pull request on github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib so 
it doesn't get lost?

 Good evening,

 I am at present migrating an application of mine from py27+pygtk (with
 mpl) to py33+pygobject (gtk3)

 Unfortunately I am unable to use

 from  matplotlib.backends.backend_gtk3agg  import 
 FigureCanvasGTK3Agg  as  FigureCanvas
 from  matplotlib.backends.backend_gtk3  import 
 NavigationToolbar2GTK3  as  NavigationToolbar


 Which is is on the examples (
 
http://matplotlib.org/examples/user_interfaces/embedding_in_gtk3_panzoom.html

 ) but is also the logical translation from what I presently have.
 This falls fowl of the cairo issue

 What I am having to use is backend_gtk3cairo. However this is being
 triggered

  raise ValueError(The Cairo backend can not draw paths longer than
 18980 points.)

 I am generally plotting 7 x-y plots with upto 30,000 points.
 Now for now I have commented this out from my local install, is there
 a better/preferred/recommended alternative?

This was put in there because cairo had (at least at the time) a hard
coded limit on path size, and getting a Python exception was IMHO
preferable to segfaulting and having the process go away.  Are you
saying that when you comment it out, it's currently working?  It may be
that cairo has fixed this limit in the intervening years. Can you
provide a simple, standalone example that reproduces the error?


Using python33  pygi-aio-3.10.2-win32_rev18 (to provide pygobject for 
windows:)
Using: 
http://matplotlib.org/examples/user_interfaces/embedding_in_gtk3_panzoom.html 
as the baseline provides the following error:


  File 
c:\Python33\lib\site-packages\matplotlib\backends\backend_gtk3agg.py, line 
52, in on_draw_event

buf, cairo.FORMAT_ARGB32, width, height)
NotImplementedError: Surface.create_for_data: Not Implemented yet.


This has been mentioned a few times across the ml

Modifying the example to use backend_gtk3cairo

from matplotlib.backends.backend_gtk3cairo import 
FigureCanvasGTK3Cairo as FigureCanvas
from matplotlib.backends.backend_gtk3 import NavigationToolbar2GTK3 as 
NavigationToolbar



Now the example runs and plots a nice sinewave (as expected). Modify 
the script to plot 7 waveforms, 100pts


##
#!/usr/bin/env python3

demonstrate NavigationToolbar with GTK3 accessed via pygobject


from gi.repository import Gtk

from matplotlib.figure import Figure
import numpy as np
from matplotlib.backends.backend_gtk3cairo import 
FigureCanvasGTK3Cairo as FigureCanvas
from matplotlib.backends.backend_gtk3 import NavigationToolbar2GTK3 as 
NavigationToolbar



win = Gtk.Window()
win.connect(delete-event, Gtk.main_quit )
win.set_default_size(400,300)
win.set_title(Embedding in GTK)

fig = Figure(figsize=(5,4), dpi=100)
plt = fig.add_subplot(1,1,1)

t = np.arange(0,2*np.pi,2*np.pi/100)
a = np.sin(t + 0*(2*np.pi/7))
b = np.sin(t + 1*(2*np.pi/7))
c = np.sin(t + 2*(2*np.pi/7))
d = np.sin(t + 3*(2*np.pi/7))
e = np.sin(t + 4*(2*np.pi/7))
f = np.sin(t + 5*(2*np.pi/7))
g = np.sin(t + 6*(2*np.pi/7))
plt.plot(t,a)
plt.plot(t,b)
plt.plot(t,c)
plt.plot(t,d)
plt.plot(t,e)
plt.plot(t,f)
plt.plot(t,g)

vbox = Gtk.VBox()
win.add(vbox)

# Add canvas to vbox
canvas = FigureCanvas(fig)  # a Gtk.DrawingArea
vbox.pack_start(canvas, True, True, 0)

# Create toolbar
toolbar = NavigationToolbar(canvas, win)
vbox.pack_start(toolbar, False, False, 0)

win.show_all()
Gtk.main()


This works, its only 100pts for 7 scatters so nothing unexpected.
Modify the arange to create a time array of 30,000 pts.

t = np.arange(0,2*np.pi,2*np.pi/3)


  File 
c:\Python33\lib\site-packages\matplotlib\backends\backend_cairo.py, 
line 143, in draw_path
raise ValueError(The Cairo backend can not draw paths longer than 
18980 points.)

ValueError: The Cairo backend can not draw paths longer than 18980 points.


The already mentioned raise to protect against a segfault.
Edit backend_cairo to comment out the check:


def draw_path(self, gc, path, transform, rgbFace=None):
#if len(path.vertices)  18980:
#raise ValueError(The Cairo backend can not draw paths 
longer than 18980 points.)


ctx = gc.ctx



7channel, 30,000 pts each is plotted just fine. Zoom rectangle is slow 
to render, but this is true for 100pts (so more a gtk3 thing than a 
cairo and multiple points thing)


Final script:
