[Matplotlib-users] Maximize plotwindow & hot to plot figure by figure?

2 Problems: 1. How is it possible to maximize the window of the plot? 2. First I want to plot only figure 0, after 5 seconds figure 0 has to be closed and figure 1 to be shown. Any suggestions? from pylab import * import time ion() figure(0) plot([1,2,3]) figure(1) plot([10, 20, 30]) fi

The current matplotlib does not have any automatic way as far as I know (any contribution will be appreciated). On the other hand, instead of explicitly specifying the ticks and ticklabels, you may try to reduce the number of ticks. gca().xaxis.get_major_locator()._nbins=4 Regards, -JJ On Thu

In using the contour as in: contour(X,Y,Z,N) N is a number of automatically chosen levels. I would like to contour based on data divisions. For instance, perhaps I'd like to use a contour or color-fill (contourf) every 2 units. I'm not seeing how to accomplish this. Any points in the right di

How about returning the colorbar limits from pcl(), and using the larger extent of those limits and the ones from the scatter data when you call the colorbar in sct()? (ScalarMappables have get_clim(), set_clim().) Or, more generally, record the data limits and have both functions check th

You're already using "ax.legend", what kind of OO way do you want? Instead of calling plt.legend, you may do ax.legend([s],[str(i)]) Or, if you know what you're doing, you can do leg = ax.legend([s],[''], loc=0) and in the for loop, leg.texts[0].set_text(str(i)) Regards, -JJ On Thu,

Hi, I am re-using a scatter plot in the same figure for interactively displaying results without ending up with 30 windows open. The legend is relevant, and so it must be also updated.
