if you start your python session with:
```
import matplotlib
matplotlib.use('TkAgg')
...
```
You will select the TkAgg backend which is interactive and normally installed.
I don't know which ones are available on your system but see the link below for
various possibilities that you may try instead. This also contains information
about how the backends are set.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] no plots showing
You're missing a pair of parentheses. Without it, you're just referring to the function itself. plt.show() On Nov 27, 2015 11:36 AM, "Paul Harrison" wrote: > > Hi guys, > > If I do the following, no plot shows: > > ply5@xroa-dt-20:~> python > > Python 2.6.9 (unknown, Apr 7 2015, 08:28:12) > > [GCC 4.3.4 [gcc-4_3-branch revision 152973]] on linux2 > > Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. > > >>> import pylab as plt > > >>> plt.figure() > > > > >>> plt.hist([1.0,2,0]) > > (array([ 1., 0., 0., 0., 0., 1., 0., 0., 0., 1.]), array([ 0. , > 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1. , 1.2, 1.4, 1.6, 1.8, 2. ]), Patch objects>) > > >>> plt.show > > > > >>> > > I'm using SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 SP3 64-bit with python-matplotlib > v1.3.1-70.11. > > Anyone have any ideas?

Re: [Matplotlib-users] no plots showing
plt.show is a function. You are not calling it just displaying it.
