It would probably be considerable work to ply mathtext out of matplotlib,
particularly if you consider bringing along the Ps/Pdf/Svg/Cairo backends.
Just bringing the raster backend (which is really in ft2font.cpp) would be
considerably less work.
But I was mainly just sharing a "wouldn't it b
There is now preliminary support for getting a mathtext bitmap to
transfer to a GUI widget in SVN, along with a toy wxPython example in
examples/mathtext_wx.py. I've only tested this on
Linux/wxGTK2/wxPython-2.8. I'd appreciate help with testing (and
screenshots) on any other platforms you ma
I should also mention my mathtext_wx.py example reveals a [possible] bug
in wxPython-2.8 and/or the underlying Gtk. When you put a bitmap on a
menu item, the *height* of the menu item is determined by the *width* of

And placing bitmaps in menu items reportedly doesn't work at all o

The wxPython demo.py for menus has a smiley face bit map that displays
just fine. Let me k
