[Matplotlib-users] DreamPie (a new Python shell) and matplotlib

2010-09-02 Thread Noam Yorav-Raphael
Hello, I'm the developer of DreamPie, a new graphical Python shell (you can check it out at http://dreampie.sourceforge.net ) I worked to make it work nicely with matplotlib -- it runs Tk/GTK/Qt event loops when idle, so if matplotlib is in interactive mode it works great. I even made DreamPie ch

Hi, I was struggling with the same problem since 2 days. But today I found the solution here: http://efreedom.com/Question/1-2195983/Matplotlib-Formatting-Dates-Axis-3D-Bar-Graph #When you use the method ax.set_xtics #it doesn't put ticks to your 3d plot, instead puts ticst to 2D canvas. #Wh

Hi. I tested the svn snapshot from yesterday to see if the problem is there for me in the most recent version. I had to do the check on a linux box, as that one is the only one I am able to compile on. The svn version states itself as 1.0.0 also in matplotlib.__version__ which I hope is ok. The

[Matplotlib-users] Uniform transparency and background color?

2010-09-02 Thread Mitesh Patel
Hello, Is it possible to specify both an alpha level and a background color so that an entire saved image has a uniform transparency and color? For example, with matplotlib 1.0.0, this script yields the attached image: from matplotlib.pyplot import figure, savefig, show fig = figure() ax = fig.
