Re: [Matplotlib-users] [IPython-user] 'pause' in order to cycle though a bunch of plots

2008-11-14 Thread Tom Denniston
I've had the same problem. You can write a pause function using the python input() function but it hangs the GIL and as a result your window becomes unresponsive. If anyone knows a GIL friendly way to pause i would also be very interested. On Fri, Nov 14, 2008 at 1:12 PM, Benjamin J. Racine <[E

Sorry meant to send this to the whole list: John, Thanks for the fix. After reading Eric's email I started to question my profiling results but I still (without your fix) seem to see a significant time when in Artist when generating large volumes of graphs. I need t

I've been profiling some of my code which builds many somewhat complex graphs. I've noticed that it spends almost all it's time in the __init__ of the artist class. The time there is almost entirely spent on calling identity_transform which builds a SeperableTransform that does no transforming--f

When I use contourf with an alpha argument and the "hot" color scheme.  The alpha causes the colors to come out lighter but the colorbar does not adjust accordingly.  Is this a bug or do I simply need to adjust the colorbar in some manner?       Below is an adaptation of pcolor.py from the screens

When you do a line scatter plot in excel and data is missing between two observations excel doesn't connect those two observations with a line. So what you see is a line with gaps where the data is missing. Missing data is defined as having x values but no y value or vice versa. Is there a good w

FigureCanvasAgg seems to make fonts appear much larger that FigureCanvasWxAgg. I am trying to get plots generated interactively in a wx window to appear the same as those that I generate in a no display batch script that outputs .png files. I use FigureCanvasWxAgg for the former and FigureCanvasA
