Yes, for URL links the API should look similar, but I think for multimedia we need a richer API. PDF has support for embedding sound files in various formats since version 1.2, and (very complicated looking) support for general multimedia since version 1.5. -- Jouni K.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Links in pdf
Just a note when implementing this feature (I'm too busy at the moment as well) -- the SVG backend already supports hyperlinks, so if possible the PDF support should piggyback on its public API (get_url/set_url).

I have the second solution by now. But I hope I will succeed to make a clickable area match to each subplot, probably using tikz to set the size of the area. -- Fabrice Silva Laboratory of Mechanics and Acoustics (CNRS, UPR 7051) -- Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.

This is not possible with the current pdf backend. I imagine it would not be too difficult to implement, but I am way too busy at work to do it any time soon. > More specifically, I have a figure with a bunch of nicely-formatted > subplots and I embed this figure in a beamer presentation.

Beamer comes with a package called multimedia, and I think it allows you to achieve something much like this -- see the \sound and \hyperlinksound macros. It might be difficult to make the hyperlink be exactly some subplot, but perhaps you could use e.g. speaker icons as link anchors and place them in suitable locations. -- Jouni K.

[Matplotlib-users] Links in pdf
Hi folks I know it is possible to handle events in the figure canvas to interact with plots and components of the figure, to even run shell commands, etc... I wish I could save include links in exported pdf file. Tell me whether it is possible to have a pdf file containing matplotlib plots on which I could click to run actions, in the same manner that pdf files can include clickable URL... More specifically, I have a figure with a bunch of nicely-formatted subplots and I embed this figure in a beamer presentation. I wish I could play the associated sound when I click on one of the subplots in Beamer (running a shell command). -- Fabrice Silva Laboratory of Mechanics and Acoustics (CNRS, UPR 7051) -- Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
