[Matplotlib-users] trouble with rcParams

2007-03-09 Thread Jeff Peery
Hello, I apologize if this message was already posted, it was bounced back to me. I am having some confusion about how best to set my plot settings. Should I use rcParams, or carry around my own class object holding plot() and scatter() settings? I have a wx app and I plot simple x y data. I m

Hello, When I plot using the errorbar() routine, I get beautiful plots, complete with error bars. Then, when I want to perform manipulations on the data after the fact, I use lines = axes.get_lines() to get at the lines lines[n].get_xdata() and set_xdata() to edit the data etc... The problem

[Matplotlib-users] Square/Circle markers with transparent faces?

2007-03-09 Thread John T Whelan
Dear matplotlib gurus, When I use plot(t,x,'rx',t,y,'bs'); in matlab, it produces blue boxes for y, i.e., squares with a blue border and a transparent interior, so that if one of them lies on top of a red x, I can see the red x inside the blue box. The same construction in matplotlib produces b

Complete examples always help ince we have no way of knowing what the points data structures look like, but I'll hazard a gues. The x and y arguments to "plot" need to be sequences. Ie, something like plot([0.5], [0.5], 'ro') It can be inefficient to plot many separate points this way -- if
