I'm not familiar with pgf, could you provide some more information?
pgf is a tex-based graphic language similar to ps-tricks but also
for pdftex. There are very nice graphics:
http://www.ctan.org/get/graphics/pgf/base/doc/generic/pgf/pgfmanual.pdf
The basic drawing is like this (a cross)
\begin{tikzpicture}
\draw (-1.5,0) -- (1.5,0); % horizontal line
\draw (0,-1.5) -- (0,1.5); % vertical line
\draw (1,1) node{$y=x^2$}; % text label
\end{tikzpicture}
There also exsits makro pakages for (more ore less convinent) data plots
but then you dont have the nice python interface.
What problems do you have with font scaling, and what additional
capabilities do you think such an approach would offer?
I want that fonts in the mpl graphics have the same (or otherwise related)
proerties as the main-font in my latex document.
So, therefore I have to know all the font properties from my latex
document (\normalfont): type, family, size.
The next problem is that the standard size of the mpl graphic (8, 6) inches
is too big for my latex document (0.5\linewidth). Therefore I must scale
the mpl graphic (\includegraphics[width=0.5\linewidth]{...}). But with this
scaling the font in the mpl graphic are also scaled and I have no chance
adapeting the two fonts (mpl, latex) without manual iterations.
Ok, I could adjust the figsize but the last time I did it (long time ago)
there were other misplaced objects in the mpl graphic (I dont remember
exactly, sorry).
But if I had the whole mpl graphic as pgf commands there would be no
problem with the font stuff, scaleing and line widths. And may be you
could extend the mpl graphic with some tricky (and eye candy) pgf
extensions (ok I am also a beginner with the pgf language but its
realy powerfull).
BTW. In the same way I can create very nice ciruit schematic with
CircuitMacros
www.ece.uwaterloo.ca/~aplevich/Circuit_macros/html/examples.pdf
I hope you could understand what I mean :-)

Wouldn't this cause some problems with how the text is layed out on

because the extents of the text are known. If you allow the fonts and

positioned incorrectly.
Shortly: Yes this is a problem but pgf could solve it.
I dont know it exactly but if you do all the graphic stuff with pgf in
latex so you can adjust the text boxes in a various way in respect to
different points. E.g. baseline -left, -right, -center and so on. This is
explaind in the pgfmanual in section 53.3.3.
If I fly over the pgfmanual I get the impression that I could do
everything with it :-) But to do this its a hard work (for beginners).
Therefore I like to have the convinient pylab-interface to create pretty
standard plots for latex.

then legend doesn't know about the colours used, so here just uses black
for both labels. I'd like the labels to have the same colour as the bars
generated inside plotb. (I am using a function here as my real code has
extra stuff to calculate error-bars and suchlike for each data set.)
x=arange(0,5)
y=array([ 1.2, 3.4, 5.4, 2.3, 1.0])
z=array([ 2.2, 0.7, 0.4, 1.3, 1.2])

p=bar(x,y,color=col)
plotb(x,y,'k')
plotb(x+0.4,z,'y')

I tried passing the object p through the plotb argument list, but
python didn't like that. (I am just learning python, and so far haven't
seen how to pass such objects around.
You could return the plotted lines from the function plotb.
Here is my attempt:
In [1]: x=arange(0,5)
In [2]: y=array([ 1.2, 3.4, 5.4, 2.3, 1.0])
In [3]: z=array([ 2.2, 0.7, 0.4, 1.3, 1.2])
In [4]: def plotb(x,y,col):

...: return lines
...:
In [5]: l1 = plotb(x,y,'k')
In [6]: l2 = plotb(x+0.4,z,'y')
In [7]: legend((l1[0], l2[0]), ('YYY','ZZZ'))
Out[7]: matplotlib.legend.Legend object at 0x908dc6c
The legend() function could label any line object. So every single bar-line
could be listed in the legend. But I think you would only have one from
each color, so I have choosen the first: l1[0] and l2[0].
Is this what you what?

This is something of a controversial issue. One side is presented at

Ok, I test it with 'g' by this reply, and it works. I hope I can change

Something like: ymin, ymax = self.get_ylim() if ymaxymin: ymin, ymax = ymax, ymin scaley = (yymin) or (yymax) trans = mtransforms.blended_transform_factory( self.transAxes, self.transData) l, = self.plot([xmin,xmax], [y,y], transform=trans, scalex=False, scaley=scaley, **kwargs) I just committed this to svn in r5141 so give it a test drive and let me know what you think. You are right. This patch works fine for me, thanks. There is an unrelated problem with the autoscaler which is that in the example plot([1,2,3]) axhline(20) it sets ymax to 20 making the hline invisible. But there is no problem with axhline(20.2) Thats why the autoscale sets the outer ticks to the boundaries. We should probably force the ylimits to be strictly outside the data limits in some cases when autoscaling. I think this would be better then the current (undefined) behaviour (sometimes the datalines touches the boundaries and sometimes not). For my own stuff I have used gca().set_ylim(ax.dataLim.intervaly*1.2) for a 'autoscale' replacement. By, Friedrich - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
