Sandro, Thanks for reporting it. With the default interpolation, rendering gets extremely slow as the view limits decline to and below a single image pixel. I suspect the crash is related to this. Neither the slowdown nor the crash occurs with interpolation='nearest', although there is still an anomaly in which the image is blank when the viewlim region is too small. Like Ryan, I am not familiar with the _image.cpp and the underlying agg routines, but I suspect this is going to be a difficult problem to solve. It may be necessary to put in some workaround, trying to trap and prevent the extreme slowdown and crash. The slowdown topic came up on the list years ago. http://www.mail-archive.com/matplotlib-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg00513.html Eric > > On Thu, Jun 10, 2010 at 16:52, Teemu Ikonen<tpiko...@gmail.com> wrote: >> Package: python-matplotlib >> Version: 0.99.1.2-3 >> Severity: important >> >> Running a program which displays an image with plt.imshow() and changes the >> axes with plt.axis() before calling plt.show() crashes the python >> interpreter: >> >> $ python mpl_crash.py >> terminate called after throwing an instance of 'char const*' >> Aborted >> >> This happens at least with Qt4Agg, GTKAgg and TKAgg backends. >> >> The example program is attached. >> >> Best, >> >> Teemu >> >> -- System Information: >> Debian Release: squeeze/sid >> APT prefers testing >> APT policy: (500, 'testing') >> Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) >> >> Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) >> Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) >> Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash >> >> Versions of packages python-matplotlib depends on: >> ii libatk1.0-0 1.30.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit >> ii libc6 2.10.2-9 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared >> lib >> ii libcairo2 1.8.10-4 The Cairo 2D vector graphics >> libra >> ii libfontconfig1 2.8.0-2.1 generic font configuration >> library >> ii libfreetype6 2.3.11-1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared >> lib >> ii libgcc1 1:4.4.4-1 GCC support library >> ii libglib2.0-0 2.24.1-1 The GLib library of C routines >> ii libgtk2.0-0 2.20.1-1 The GTK+ graphical user >> interface >> ii libpango1.0-0 1.28.0-1 Layout and rendering of >> internatio >> ii libpng12-0 1.2.43-1 PNG library - runtime >> ii libstdc++6 4.4.4-1 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 >> ii python 2.5.4-9 An interactive high-level >> object-o >> ii python-cairo 1.8.8-1+b1 Python bindings for the Cairo >> vect >> ii python-dateutil 1.4.1-3 powerful extensions to the >> standar >> ii python-gobject 2.21.1-1 Python bindings for the GObject >> li >> ii python-matplotlib-data 0.99.1.2-3 Python based plotting system >> (data >> ii python-numpy 1:1.3.0-3+b1 Numerical Python adds a fast >> array >> ii python-pyparsing 1.5.2-2 Python parsing module >> ii python-support 1.0.8 automated rebuilding support >> for P >> ii python-tz 2010b-1 Python version of the Olson >> timezo >> ii tcl8.5 8.5.8-2 Tcl (the Tool Command Language) >> v8 >> ii tk8.5 8.5.8-1 Tk toolkit for Tcl and X11, >> v8.5 - >> ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime >> >> Versions of packages python-matplotlib recommends: >> ii python-glade2 2.17.0-2 GTK+ bindings: Glade support >> ii python-tk 2.6.5-1 Tkinter - Writing Tk >> applications >> >> Versions of packages python-matplotlib suggests: >> ii dvipng 1.13-1 convert DVI files to PNG >> graphics >> ii ipython 0.10-2 enhanced interactive Python >> shell >> ii librsvg2-common 2.26.3-1 SAX-based renderer library for >> SVG >> ii python-configobj 4.7.2+ds-1 simple but powerful config file >> re >> pn python-excelerator<none> (no description available) >> ii python-gtk2 2.17.0-2 Python bindings for the GTK+ >> widge >> pn python-matplotlib-doc<none> (no description available) >> pn python-qt3<none> (no description available) >> ii python-qt4 4.7.3-1 Python bindings for Qt4 >> ii python-scipy 0.7.2-1 scientific tools for Python >> ii python-traits 3.3.0-1 Manifest typing and reactive >> progr >> ii python-wxgtk2.8 2.8.10.1-3 wxWidgets Cross-platform C++ >> GUI t >> ii texlive-extra-utils 2009-7 TeX Live: TeX auxiliary programs >> ii texlive-latex-extra 2009-7 TeX Live: LaTeX supplementary >> pack >> >> -- no debconf information >> >> _______________________________________________ >> Python-modules-team mailing list >> python-modules-t...@lists.alioth.debian.org >> http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/python-modules-team >> > > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > ThinkGeek and WIRED's GeekDad team up for the Ultimate > GeekDad Father's Day Giveaway.
