Re: [Matplotlib-users] Py2app application with matplotlib fails on OS X 10.6

2009-11-09 Thread Emanuele Santos
We saw the same problem with VisTrails (www.vistrails.org). It seems that python.org's python can't build the fonts in ~/.matplotlib on snow leopard. We noticed that importing matplotlib.axis using Apple's python will do that. So this is the work-around we found for vistrails (bundled with

[Matplotlib-users] Py2app application with matplotlib fails on OS X 10.6

2009-11-09 Thread Brian Zambrano
I'm getting my Py2app build running and think I've worked around some issues, but another major one has come up. My application is being built on OS X 10.5.8, where matplotlib is, oviously, installed. On another 10.5.X machine without any of the app's dependencies, my compiled app runs just fine.

[Matplotlib-users] plotting single point

2009-11-09 Thread Paul Northug
Greetings, I would much like to plot single point in existing figure. If the point is outside of current axes limit, I would like the axes not to resize. Is there an easy way? Currently, to add a point x,y, I scatter([x],[y]) then xlim and ylim to make sure the axes did not rescale. Pål

hi, i'd like to use the divider stuff in axes_grid to plot a figure with 2 axes, with xticks on the bottom axis. in the script pasted below, if i use 0.07 as the min for the y-axis, then it chops off the top of the plot. if i use 0 as the min, then it doesn't chop of the top, but it doesnt show the
