[Matplotlib-users] Findng the right args and kwargs

Hi all, One of the most persistent problems I have with matplotlib is finding out which kwargs and args are available for some commands. For instance, I am looking at manipulating axis ticks and labels in mplot3d, so I went to the mplot3d api page, and looked for useful commands and found: set_

[Matplotlib-users] Removing axes

Hi all, Thanks for the help so far. One more question - How do I completely remove the axes? I currently have a plot where a square hatching of lines is deformed to create a sky projection, so the square block of axes actually gets in the way. How do I remove it? Cheers Michael --

[Matplotlib-users] Transparent plot symbols

Hi all, I am making a plot with circle symbols, so I have 'o' in the plot() command. How do I make those circles transparent? I'd like the center of the circles to allow the catter plot underneath the circle location to show through. Cheers Michael -

[Matplotlib-users] Increasing axis label sizes

Hi all, I am trying to figure out how to increase the size of the numbers that label the tick marks on the axes. Increasing the size of the axis labels is easy, use xlabel and the option fontsize = # How do I make the numbers labelling the ticks bigger? I dont specify the ticks by hand, they ar

[Matplotlib-users] Saving a plot to EPS

Hi all, I made a typical plot, and tried to save it to EPS. The resulting file is un-openable in gimp, the gnome thumbnail viewer, evince, and anything else I have tried. Is there any problem saving a plot to EPS at the moment? Cheers Mike --

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Arrows between points in a plot?

The arrows worked quite well, but I can't figure out how to curve them in a natural way, so they don't overlap. Also, how do I alter the breadth of the arrowhead, and to make it the same size along arrows of all lengths? Cheers, Mike Jose Gomez-Dans wrote: > Hi, > 2009/11/

[Matplotlib-users] Arrows between points in a plot?

Hi all, I have a plot that has say 6 black X's, each separate, and 6 blue X's, also separate, denoting where x's 1-6 have moved to (from black to blue). Currently each point is plotted with a separate plot function. I would like to generate a plot where each black x and blue x pair has an arrow

[Matplotlib-users] introductory backends

Hi all, At the Scipy2009 conference I was recently told I could get better performance from matplotlib through an ssh tunnel by using a different backend. However, I can't find any introductory material on this, just function docs for backend_bases module. What part of the matplotlib call inc

[Matplotlib-users] Weighted histograms

Hi all, I am trying to produce a weighted histogram. The help text for "hist" here: http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/pyplot_api.html#matplotlib.pyplot.hist has a mention of adding weights, but it is not noted in the command line section where this should appear. Calling: hist(data,20,data_we
