Would you be amenable to this?

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Tutorial on perceptual colormaps
Really great material (ipython notebook and videos), thanks a lot to you all. Are the slides available somewhere by any chance ?

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Tutorial on perceptual colormaps
Hi Nicolas I do not have any slides of this material yet. I will try at some point to upload them on github, although I'm already working on tutorial part two, so it may take a while. In the meantime, I have a set of slides from 2012 when I presented this talk: http://www.cspg.org/cspg/documents/Conventions/Archives/Annual/2012/155_GC2012_A_More_Perceptual_Color_Palette_for_Structure_Maps.pdf Let me know if you're interested and I will upload them on github. Hi Damon, yes, I did see your talk and Kristen's and I am really excited there's good momentum on this topic. I will write you later today about the matplotlib webpage, great idea. Thanks to both for your feedback. Matteo On Wed, August 6, 2014 2:05 pm, Nicolas P. Rougier wrote: Really great material (ipython notebook and videos), thanks a lot to you all.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] ImportError: No module named _backend_gdk
Thanks Paul. I'm new to all of this and the interplay between GTK, it's headers and matplotlib is admittedly still a bit of a mystery to me. I have GTK installed. I installed it after installing matplotlib because I tried to use TKAgg as a backend and ended up running into some problems. I'm on MacOSX Mavericks. I've been googling around and there don't seem to be any direct answers for how to gett these headers installed on Mac OS. What's the quickest way to get these headers on my system(via homebrew?)? And once I get them, do I have to reinstall matplotlib so that it can recognize the headers? -- View this message in context: http://matplotlib.1069221.n5.nabble.com/ImportError-No-module-named-backend-gdk-tp43753p43761.html Sent from the matplotlib - users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Infragistics Professional Build stunning WinForms apps today!
