[matplotlib-devel] Creating an interactive figure from the OO interface

2015-09-17 Thread Nathan Goldbaum
Hi all, I see in the matplotlib 1.5 release notes that the figures created via the OO interface can now be interactively updated. Does this mean it's now possible to create a figure using the interactive backend, manually associate it with a figure manager, and then call the show() method on the

Re: [matplotlib-devel] Dev build on matplotlib with conda

2015-07-22 Thread Nathan Goldbaum
One way to do this is to build a Conda package using the matplotlib recipe: https://github.com/conda/conda-recipes/tree/master/matplotlib Looking at the Conda recipe might give you some hints about how it locates png.h as well, although I haven't checked in detail. On Wednesday, July 22, 2015, B
