Hi,

I got the following error when clearing and plotting on the same
figure for many times. I found the following minimum code to reproduce
this error. I am using matplotlib-0.91.1 and wxpython2.8 on windows
xp. In the matplotlibrc file, I changed the backend to WXAgg and
interactive to True.

import pylab
def test(n):
    for i in range(n):
        f=pylab.figure(1)
        f.clf()
        a=f.add_axes([0.2, 0.2, 0.6, 0.6])
        a.plot([1,2,3,4,5], 'ro')


The error only happens for a large n. For example, test(10) works
fine, but test(50) will cause the error. Also runing test(10) for a
few times will also cause the error.

Could anyone give me some help?

Thanks.

The following is the error message:
