[Matplotlib-users] overlaying a plot repeatedly

2009-07-28 Thread Art
I have a scatter plot that requires some time to render. The horizontal axis is time. Currently, I generate the full scatter plot each time and draw a axvline to indicate the progress of time, save the file as a png for each time, and generate a movie for all time frames. The scatter plot portion d

Hi All, I was downloading matplotlib on a windows machine and the sourceforge site (http://sourceforge.net/projects/matplotlib/) showed me basemap as the default download (instead of the latest matplotlib). On Mac the default download shows correctly as matplotlib. This is some autodetection

[Matplotlib-users] Possible To Contour Around 1-Sigma Curves?

2009-07-28 Thread Joseph Smidt
I have a function on a 2d grid that looks like a skewed mound. I would like to make a contour plot where each contour represents each sigma, or confidence interval. I.e. Is there a straight forward way to make such a contour plot where it is then easy to say: This line is 1-sigma or 68% confiden

[Matplotlib-users] Crosshairs

2009-07-28 Thread Paul Ray
Hi, I see that scatter() has a variety of different symbols that you can choose from, and even a way to create your own custom markers. However, I can't figure out how to make a crosshair symbol (a plus with non-touching lines) as my marker, which I'd like to use to show the location of

Tony, This looks great, and I am enjoying seeing how to accomplish things in a more Pythonic way. I don't see the radial grid lines, but I am using 0.98.5.3. I am downloading 0.99.3 now and maybe that will be the fix (I have yet to figure out how to build out of svn on Windows...). One small nit:
