Well, I'm recursively iterating through the children of all objects,
starting at gcf() (and then picking up gca(), lines, axes, everything
that belongs to the plot), which is then parsed and a TikZ file is
spit out. I need t

Yes. This weirdness came about because Subplot used

Just to share my knowlegde with you: I found

That is the class 'matplotlib.axes.Subplot' was inherited from SubplotBase and
Well, I guess that's good enough for me. :)
It's a bit unfortunate that the type() function wouldn't spit out this
information, though. When for example iterating through the output of
get_children() (iterating through a list of objects of unknown classes
that is), would there be any other way (fu
Hi Nico,
If you're using IPython then you can do a cool trick. Say your your
instantiation is called var. You can type:
var?
and it'll spit out some info about the object, including what it's an instance
of. If you type
var??
it'll try to print out more detailed information.
Hope that helps
Hi Nico,
I'm sorry I cannot help you, but at least I'd like to share my findings with
you: I find the following statements to be true:
isinstance(gca(), matplotlib.axes.SubplotBase)
isinstance(gca(), matplotlib.axes.Subplot)
isinstance(gca(), matplotlib.axes.Axes)
but there is no class 'AxesSubpl
Hm.
print type( gca() )
print gca().__class__
print isinstance( gca(), matplotlib.axes.AxesSubplots)
yields
Traceback (most recent call last):

Hi,
quick question from a Python noob:
Suppose I have an instance of an object of matplotlib, Is there any
way to check on its type, e.g., whether it is an instance of
matplotlib.axes.AxesSubplots?
Cheers!
