Re: [matplotlib-devel] [Fwd: Re: Patch for scatter plot legend enhancement]

2008-10-20 Thread Erik Tollerud
Actually, looking more closely, there is one thing that's still bothering me: as it is now, it's impossible to have, say, 2 points for plotted values, and 3 points for scatter plots on the same legend (you have to give a numpoints=# command that's shared by everything in the legend, if I'm underst

Thanks for your reply, John. It's mostly me being naive - my code works great when I choose WXAgg as my backend. I'll be using that for now. Feel free to accept / reject or ask for fixes to the patch. --Lee John Hunter wrote: On Mon, Oct 20, 2008 at 7:51 AM, Lee Kamentsky <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
