[Matplotlib-users] aspect_ratio in combination with sharex

Hello - I have a hard time getting aspect_ratio to work correctly with sharex. This used to work quite a while ago, and has been broken for a long time (or at least I don't know how to get it to work) But I finally found the time to put a simple example together to determine if I do something wron

[Matplotlib-users] dashes and dpi?

Michael - This trick for replacing contour labels with a string was posted a little while back (by someone else):* * class FormatFaker(object): def __init__(self, str): self.str = str def __mod__(self, stuff): return self.str A=arange(100).reshape(10,10) CS=contour(A,[50,]) CS.clabel(fmt=F

[Matplotlib-users] new location of home.ppm

Hello - It seems that in the latest version (0.9.1) the location of the images, such as home.ppm, has moved to a new directory. It used to be in ...\mpl-data and now it is in ...\mpl-data\images This totally breaks my code, as I use my own toolbar that uses these images, with a hardcoded location

[Matplotlib-users] Installation of Python/mpl/numpy/scipy/Ipython for students

A question was posted a week or so ago on the scipy list about installing Python/mpl/numpy/scipy/Ipython by David Arnold (both Windows and Mac). He was interested in a simple install for students (and others that are less computer-savy). We had a little off-list correspondence, but thought to bring

Re: [Matplotlib-users] After saving in GUI, how can I get the oo-interface?

Arnar - I presume you are using Tk. This is a known bug under Tk, that is apparently difficult to solve. John Hunter looked into it a year back or so, but couldn't find help from Tk experts that may know the solution. Oddly enough, I have written my own GUI in Tk, where I modified the toolbar, and

Re: [Matplotlib-users] saving figures

Erik - You write that adding a 'save' is difficult. I can see it is involved, but don't quite see how it is specifically difficult. The way I see it, every item that is added to a figure needs a method to write itself to a file. So you loop through all lines, polygons, and such, and write them to

[Matplotlib-users] inconsistency in LineCollection

[Matplotlib-users] How to control space between ylabel and yaxis (Was: how to control space between ylabel and yticklabel?)

I think LABELPAD is the padding between the label and the tick. What I would like to control is the distance between the label and the y-axis itself. This is desired when you do multiple subplots and you want all ylabels to align nicely; they may differ depending on the numbers along the yticks. A
