Re: [matplotlib-devel] Bug in mplot3d set_xlim3d, set_ylim3d, set_zlim3d

2010-04-15 Thread Ben Axelrod
You should probably avoid sending the same message to the list twice. You run the risk of only annoying the developers and not getting any real help. The mplot3d axes code is in a major need of refactoring. There are very few developers who have worked on the mplot3d code. But at the same tim

Re: [matplotlib-devel] Selecting all the way to the edge of a plot

2010-03-22 Thread Ben Axelrod
Rectangle selection also kind of bugs out when you reach the edge of the axes. I looked into fixing this a while ago and had a partial solution. The rectangle selector does some inaxes checking and relies on the xdata and ydata values. These are invalid outside the axes, but you can fake it b

I am a little unclear on what this is and what it is used for. Is this to visualize the triangular grid for things like Finite Element Analysis (FEM) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)? What kind of format is the data in? Are there any standards for this type of thing? Do you have some e

I am a big fan of favicons. I think MPL should definitely have one for the impending 1.0 release. So I made one for you. To use, simply place this file in the top level web directory. That is usually all that is required. But some browsers prefer if you put: in the header of the html page
