[matplotlib-devel] Different behaviour of mathtext and LaTeX rendering

I just noted that mathtext and LaTeX rendering behave differently when using a single "$" character in a text string. This happened to me when looking at the dollar_ticks example from the docs because I use LaTeX rendering by default. The problem is here: formatter = ticker.FormatStrFormatte

Re: [matplotlib-devel] Different behaviour of mathtext and LaTeX rendering

There was a discussion on this list around a year ago about this. The concern was that not rendering $ as $ would break (matplotlib) backward compatibility with scripts that don't care about math at all but use a lot of dollar signs (e.g. financial plots). This is one of the few places where

Re: [matplotlib-devel] 98.4 maintenance branch

Done. I also cleaned up the svnmerge docs in doc/devel/coding_guide.rst What we don't currently have is a way to merge fixes from 0.91.x to 0.98.5. It's been a long time since 0.91.x has seen any love, so I'm not too concerned. Just be aware of it -- bug fixes on 0.91.x may need to be manual

Re: [matplotlib-devel] git questions

Thanks. I've incorporated your docs into the developer documentation. My next experiment will be to see if I can track the 0.98.5 maintenance branch with git. SVN tags/* show up as available remote branches, but not branches/*, which leaves me a bit stumped? If you've done this and there's a

[matplotlib-devel] scatter and alpha

I found that in scatter plots the alpha values given by individual entries in the color list are ignored. Here an example that shows different combinations of color and alpha arguments: x = [1,2,3] y = array([1,1,1]) c = [[1,0,0, 0.0], [1,0,0, 0.5], [1,0,0, 1.0]] scatter(x, y, s = 200

Re: [matplotlib-devel] git questions

Hi Mike, I have not imported the branches. ( IIRC, this was there were several that weren't MPL but other parts of the repo such as py4science, toolkits and so on). It may be possible to add just the 0.98.5 maintenance branch without the others, but I won't have a chance immediately to play aroun

Re: [matplotlib-devel] git questions

Thanks. These are really helpful pointers. For me, this is the one missing piece that would help me use git full-time, particularly with the way matplotlib and other projects I work on are laid out in SVN. So I'm pretty motivated to figure this out. I'll certainly share any findings in this

[matplotlib-devel] how much is dvipng needed?

Hello guys, since I'm going to update debian matplotlib pkg to 0.98.5 I'd like to know how much dvipng lib is needed to let matplotlib work. This is because adding a strong dependency on it (so that it's installed everytime you install mpl) will take in even texlive, and all its dependency, amount
