[Matplotlib-users] How is the size value used to generate symbols?

2008-05-23 Thread Neil Crighton
I'd like to plot values where the area of a marker is proportional to some value. How is the size value given in, say: scatter(x,y,'o',s=10) used to generate the markers? By eye it looks like the size value is proportional to the area (i.e. proportional to the radius squared for circle markers)

Hello, are there plan to implement a new backend for the latex proper use which create the drawing comand in the pgf language? With this kind of graphic creation I could overcome all the (font-) scaleing problems I have when I want to include a mpl graphic in my latex document. Even gnuplot has

Hi, I'd like to use Python to plot data in real-time. I've created a GUI using wxPython and have embedded a Matplotlib graph into a pane. My problem is that I don't know the best way to update the graph. What's the recommended method for this? The data comes from a peripheral device connected t
