I am just installing Windows 7 Pro and I am running into a problem with matplotlib. When running e.g. barchart_demo.py I get an error that it can not find msvcp71.dll (the dll is in C:\Python25) and I see the following exception. Traceback (most recent call last): File "barchart_demo.py", lin

[Matplotlib-users] Making mathtex output look nicer

2009-10-23 Thread Gökhan Sever
Hello, Not that I like asking the same question again and again, but I just couldn't find a way to fix one annoyance on my figures when I use mathtex formatted labels. Here is one example figure: http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/4443/mathtex.png # Set the label host.set_ylabel(r"DMT CCN Concentra

It's a bug without an easy solution. Realistically, we probably need to make two passes with the mathtext parser to determine spacing. A workaround is to use the \hspace command: r"[#/$cm^3\hspace{-0.3}$]" Mike On 10/23/2009 09:44 AM, Gökhan Sever wrote: Hello, Not that I like asking the

I think you misunderstood what I meant by proxy artist (I'm not sure if this is a right choice of the word, as a matter of fact). Again, PolyCollection instance that is returned by fill_between is not supported by legend. Therefore, you have to use other kind of artist (which I call proxy artist)

If that symbol is included in any of the font (I don't know of any), you can simply use them. Or, you need to create your own path. There are a few ways to do it, and I guess using scatter is one of the easiest. zap0 = [[-1.,0.], [-0.5, 0.5], [0.,0.], [0.5,-0.5],[1.,0.]] zap = zap0 + zap0[-
