Re: [matplotlib-devel] Tk backend different from others

[Benjamin Root]

That's the weird thing... I couldn't! I tried a few different things and I
couldn't make it go away. I'll probably give it another shot during
scipy2015.

 I'm trying to switch from the MacOSX backend to the the WXAgg backend
 because the font handling in the first is quite a bit broken. However
 the black border is very annoying. Did you manage to get rid of it?

 Cheers,

I think that worked! I made a PR:
https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/pull/4530

 No, I did not try that one. I'll give it a shot. I don't do any Tkinter
 programming, so I wasn't familiar with that one.

 I'm guessing, but did you try changing the (Tk) ``highlightthickness``?
 E.g., something like:

 widget.config(borderwidth=0, highlightthickness=0)

 It's a moderately classic Tkinter gotcha.  You remove all the borders and
 there's still one (hightlightthickness) still there, but it only shows up
 when you interact with the Frame.

 Hope that helps,

 I was working on my embedding chapter of my book when I noticed a subtle
 difference in the tkagg backend from other interactive backends. First,
 all other interactive Canvas classes inherit their respective backend's
 widget:

 ```
 ben@tigger:~/Programs/matplotlib$ git grep FigureCanvasBase | grep
 class 
 lib/matplotlib/backend_bases.py:class FigureCanvasBase(object):
 lib/matplotlib/backends/backend_agg.py:class
 FigureCanvasAgg(FigureCanvasBase):
 lib/matplotlib/backends/backend_cairo.py:class FigureCanvasCairo
 (FigureCanvasBase):
 lib/matplotlib/backends/backend_gdk.py:class FigureCanvasGDK
 (FigureCanvasBase):
 lib/matplotlib/backends/backend_gtk.py:class FigureCanvasGTK
 (gtk.DrawingArea, FigureCanvasBase):
 lib/matplotlib/backends/backend_gtk3.py:class FigureCanvasGTK3
 (Gtk.DrawingArea, FigureCanvasBase):
 lib/matplotlib/backends/backend_macosx.py:class
 FigureCanvasMac(_macosx.FigureCanvas, FigureCanvasBase):
 lib/matplotlib/backends/backend_pdf.py:class
 FigureCanvasPdf(FigureCanvasBase):
 lib/matplotlib/backends/backend_pgf.py:class
 FigureCanvasPgf(FigureCanvasBase):
 lib/matplotlib/backends/backend_ps.py:class
 FigureCanvasPS(FigureCanvasBase):
 lib/matplotlib/backends/backend_qt5.py:class
 FigureCanvasQT(QtWidgets.QWidget, FigureCanvasBase):
 lib/matplotlib/backends/backend_svg.py:class
 FigureCanvasSVG(FigureCanvasBase):
 lib/matplotlib/backends/backend_template.py:class
 FigureCanvasTemplate(FigureCanvasBase):
 lib/matplotlib/backends/backend_wx.py:class
 FigureCanvasWx(FigureCanvasBase, wx.Panel):
 ```
 (I am going to assume that _macosx.FigureCanvas has all needed things
 built-in, and I'll ignore the switched order for FigureCanvasWx). I have
 no clue if this is potentially an issue or not, it just seemed a bit
 inconsistent.

There are a lot of differences; I don't know whether it would even be 
possible to make TkAgg more similar to the others. One of the 
differences is that most of the others have a native part (e.g., 
backend_qt5) and the part that pulls in agg (e.g., backend_qt5agg). 
TkAgg does it all in one. I don't think the difference is problematic.

 Second, while I haven't tried out all the backends yet, I noticed that
 the Figure window for tkagg has an annoying border that the other
 backends don't have. It is fairly wide, 4 pixels. I would like to get
 rid of that. Does anybody object to that? I can make a PR for that and
 any other border widths I find.

Offhand, sounds reasonable.
