Define "works".  It seems to me that you could
then have a script that tries to enter the mainloop
multiple times.  I suspect "works" means that in
an interactive session you can enter and leave
the mainloop repeatedly?

Re: [Matplotlib-users] show() problem in Mac OS X 10.5.8

2009-08-21 Thread Michiel de Hoon
Does anybody know why the show._needmain stuff is needed in the show() function 
in backend_tkagg.py? Currently, this function is as follows:

def show():
"""
Show all the figures and enter the gtk mainloop

This should be the last line of your script.  This function sets
interactive mode to True, as detailed on
http://matplotlib.sf.net/interactive.html
"""
for manager in Gcf.get_all_fig_managers():
manager.show()
import matplotlib
matplotlib.interactive(True)
if rcParams['tk.pythoninspect']:
os.environ['PYTHONINSPECT'] = '1'
if show._needmain:
Tk.mainloop()
show._needmain = False
show._needmain = True


If I remove the show._needmain stuff, as in:

def show():
"""
Show all the figures and enter the gtk mainloop

This should be the last line of your script.  This function sets
interactive mode to True, as detailed on
http://matplotlib.sf.net/interactive.html
"""
for manager in Gcf.get_all_fig_managers():
manager.show()
import matplotlib
matplotlib.interactive(True)
if rcParams['tk.pythoninspect']:
os.environ['PYTHONINSPECT'] = '1'
Tk.mainloop()

then the function still seems to work fine, and multiple show()s also works.

I tested with TKAgg and WXAgg. I just bought macbook and I'm newbie yet. Do
I need to set something special for the multiple show()s?

Re: [Matplotlib-users] show() problem in Mac OS X 10.5.8

2009-08-20 Thread Michiel de Hoon
Whether or not you can do multiple show()s depends on which backend you use. 
For example, the Mac OS X native backend has no problems with the multiple 
show()s in your example. Which backend were you using? While matplotlib does 
not support multiple show()s in general, there may be a simple solution to get 
that working for the backend you are using.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] show() problem in Mac OS X 10.5.8

2009-08-19 Thread Kim, Dae-Won
 The one 'preliminary' solution I found is using an interactive mode +
raw_input.
Here is and example,

ion()
plot([1,2,3,4,5])
raw_input('Type Enter')
clf()
plot([1,2,3,4,5])
raw_input('Type_Enter')
clf()
plot([1,2,3,4,5])
show()

With this approach, I can press the enter when I want to see next figure.

Though It's not as convenient as 'multiple show()'..

Thanks Ryan,

Hm.. it's a bit strange.. I just installed matplotlib at Ubuntu using the
package manager :)
And, another linux machines (red hat enterprise) can do this too. For the
RHELs, I compiled matplotlib source code by myself.


figure() works very well, but what I want to do is to check the plots one by
one and thus
I can exit the script at any time I want (because I usually have lots of
figures to check and I don't want
to pop up every of them at the same time..)


Anyway, thank you very much!

show() actually handles starting the GUI mainloop, so you really shouldn't
be calling it more than once from a script.  Quite frankly, it's more
amazing that it works on your Ubuntu macine. :)  If you're wanting 3
separate windows, try:

plot([1,2,3,4,5])
figure()
plot([1,2,3,4,5])
figure()
plot([1,2,3,4,5])
show()

[Matplotlib-users] show() problem in Mac OS X 10.5.8

2009-08-19 Thread coati

 I have a problem with show() command in my macbook machine (Leopard 10.5.8).
For example, if I run the script shown below 
(let assume it is saved as 'test.py', and I run a command 'python test.py'),

---

plot([1,2,3,4,5])
show() #first window
plot([1,2,3,4,5])
show() #second window
plot([1,2,3,4,5])
show() #third window

---

Then the first window just pops up and I can see a beautiful straight line
:) No problem so far.
But, after I close the first window by clicking the close button of the
window, 
other two window (second and third) just pops up and close themselves
instantly
even though I didn't click the close button...
Also, the second and third plot is shown in the same window.

I don't have such problem in my Ubuntu machine.. 

Does anybody know reasons?

Thanks in advance!!
