Re: [Matplotlib-users] visualizing colormaps for complex functions

2010-04-02 Thread Gary Ruben
Hi Guy, I am also interested in the answer to this. The cplot function in the mpmath module does exactly this using matplotlib, but very inefficiently, as it computes the colour of each pixel in the image in hls colour-space and generates the corresponding rgb value directly. I suspect this i

It looks like most of the time is being taken up by pytz (timezone library), which opens ~500 files. How does the total time of "import pytz" compare? Mike Andrew Kelly wrote: > I see. I was wondering why it spit out a binary file. > > test.out is attached... > > -Andy > > On Fri, Apr 2, 2010

Can you provide the actual saved profiler data? The output of the command itself doesn't provide enough information to diagnose the problem, since it doesn't have full file paths etc. When you do (thanks Gökhan for the less verbose version): python.exe -c "import cProfile; cProfile.run('impo

I just tried running epstopdf, and this does work correctly, so maybe now the only issue is that Preview.app on mac always uses pstopdf, even for eps files? (which then is not a matplotlib issue) I also checked that giving the file the extension '.ps' produces a ps file, and that does open corre

At least on my Linux box with gs 7.07, I have to use epstopdf (not pstopdf) to convert an eps file to a pdf. ps2pdf does work for both .ps and .eps files however. It looks like the 0.99.1.1 file is not in fact an .eps file, but a .ps file, (it certainly hasn't had the ps2eps function run on it

I just had a quick look, but while extra "restore" could be a problem, the erroneous one may not be the one at line 1073, but the one at line 1066. I believe that the "restore" at 1073 is written by "pstoeps" function in backend_ps.py, and this function did write a matching "save" at line 11. Reg

Can you set "verbose.level" to "debug-annoying" in your matplotlibrc file, and then send the output to this list. That may help us track down where the font lookup is failing. Also, what platform and version of matplotlib are you running? Mike Alex S wrote: > Hi, sorry I wasn't too clear...
