Hello again,
I'm not an official dev with commit ability (though I may be committable),
but I modified figure.py and blocking_input.py to allow us to do exactly
this. Any chance it could make it to the next release?
http://sites.google.com/site/jacksankey/files/matplotlib.zip?attredirects=0
Notes:
-It would be simple to extend this to allow us to assign the keyboard keys
as well.
-It's probably worth changing the logical order or add some extra logic so
that the user can't have one button assigned to two functions (this is
probably better to allow us to change *one* of the buttons and have the
others find slots accordingly)
-I can't seem to generate the button2 event (middle click) with my logitech
thumb-wheel mouse on XP
-I can't get any keyboard events to work even when the figure's focused and
I've been clicking for awhile.
Let me know if I can help. I certainly wouldn't mind committing this myself,
should the opportunity arise. :)
Regards,
-Jack
