Re: [Matplotlib-users] 3D surfaces and scatter plots have weird alpha behavior?

2010-10-04 Thread Erik Tollerud
-- Erik Tollerud At first glance, I wonder if this is just because of mplot3d's naive approach of figuring out what is behind other things.  mplot3d doesn't do any sort of physics or ray-tracing to figure out how elements are positioned relative to the camera.  Try it again with perfectly opaque

[Matplotlib-users] Pydot graphs in matplotlib?

2010-02-15 Thread Erik Tollerud
I'm curious if anyone knows a good way to embed pydot (http://code.google.com/p/pydot/) graphs (or really, any graphviz-style graphs) inside matplotlib somehow. I could easily write out a png or something from pydot and then imshow it, but that seems very kludgy. Is there some way to load svg or

[Matplotlib-users] mplot3d scatter3d marker sizes?

2010-01-18 Thread Erik Tollerud
Is there a way to change the sizes of scatter plot markers for mplot3d.Axes3D.scatter3d ? I do from mpl_toolkits.mplot3d import Axes3D ax = Axes3D(gcf()) x,y,z = randn(3,20) ax.scatter(x,y,z,s=30*rand(20)) and I expect to see 20 points of a range of sizes from 1 to 30... but instead I see them

Re: [Matplotlib-users] problem with import pylab

2010-01-17 Thread Erik Tollerud
Just based on the traceback, the problem seems to be in Tk - does anything in tk work for you? (e.g. any of the builtin python gui stuff) You might try installing wx and changing your matplotlibrc file to have the line backend:WxAgg in it. I've never tried using the wx backend on windows (anyone

[Matplotlib-users] Continuously varying line colors?

2009-05-04 Thread Erik Tollerud
I'm hoping to generate a line plot where the color of each pixel on the plot is given by linearly interpolating the colormap from each point specified in the line, instead of having the whole line be a solid color. I can mock this up by doing a scatter plot where the points are much closer

I'm trying to adjust the font weight on some of my plots - I'd like to have the numbers along the axis ticks be bold instead of regular font like the default setting. The problem is, nothing I do seems to change the font weight. I've changed everything I can font in matplotlibrc to bold, and

I am having trouble figuring out how to control the weight of labels and text with the usetex option set to True. I would like to force all mathmode labels and text to be at least bold. I can imagine doing this either by substituting a font (i.e. changing the mathtext.fontset to 'custom' and all

I use the scatter(x,y) command to make scatter plots, but I noticed today (on the SVN version of mpl) that when I call legend() after giving scatter(x,y,label='somelabel') , the legend doesn't show the marker symbols - it only has a square patch colored in the color that was used for the scatter
