Have you read through the transformation tutorial? http://matplotlib.org/users/transforms_tutorial.html There is a section on how to do a shadow transformation that might be helpful. Obviously, you wouldn't need to create the second artist, but it does show how to customize the transform on a per-

No clue. This question has come up from time to time. I recommend using Nabble to search the archives. On Mon, Jul 28, 2014 at 2:10 AM, asmwarrior wrote: > Hi, can any one view the full email achieve for the matplotlib user > maillist? > I can only see mails up to year 2012, see image shot here

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Basic matshow question

I think it is mostly an issue with how IPython interfaces with matplotlib. If you were running from a pure python prompt, then I would suspect it to work (haven't tried myself, though). Note that the --pylab option to ipython is now highly discouraged. Instead, I would try the "%matplotlib interact

[Matplotlib-users] Matplotlib history

Hello all, I am trying to put together notes for a writeup on a short history of matplotlib (in particular, its uses for interactive plotting). I have John Hunter's SciPy 2012 Keynote, which helps, but I was hoping for some other sources. Unfortunately, searching for "matplotlib" and "history" ge

ctive, having a fixed user interface (the pylab interface) has been very useful, because the guts of the code base can be redesigned without affecting user code. On Wed, Jul 30, 2014 at 11:51 PM, Benjamin Root wrote: > Fernando, > > This information is going to be the preface of my

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Missing tests when trying to run unit tests with agg on linux

Just to note, the first log also has the font-manager issue as well. What I see as odd here is that while it was configured to install the tests (and presumedly the test data), it doesn't seem to have done that. At the very least, the test data wasn't installed. Ben On Thu, Aug 7, 2014 at 12:15

Yes, those tools do "snarf" up pick events via the widgetlock mechanism, IIRC. This is entirely intentional, and I an not sure there is a bug here to fix. On Thu, Aug 21, 2014 at 12:01 PM, Thomas Caswell wrote: > On Thu, Aug 21, 2014 at 9:44 AM, Michael Kaufman > wrote: > > > ># plot axvli

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Preserving figure over closes and reopenings of the window

Maciej, When you close a figure, just about everything gets destroyed (this is why you should always savefig() prior to doing a show()). There is a mechanism for "reloading" a plot using python pickles: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7290370/store-and-reload-matplotlib-pyplot-object As for se

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Region within contour --> 2D array

That stuff is done in the deep underbelly of matplotlib and isn't exposed to the user. It is done as part of the rendering process in AGG or whichever other backend is performing the render. I have done something very similar to what you are asking for my job, and while I can't share the code, I ca

Re: [Matplotlib-users] violin plot

No reason why it shouldn't. I would be more than happy to see that feature added. I could perhaps be convinced that it is a "bug" that it is in the boxplot function and not the violin function so that it could get out into a 1.4.1 release sooner. ::wink:: On Thu, Aug 28, 2014 at 8:05 AM, Neal Bec
