hi,
I get this error when I'm generating numerous .png files using
matplotlib 0.9.2 in py2.4 on WinXP
-----------------------------
Fail to allocate bitmap
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual
way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.
Unable to free colormap, palette is still selected.
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual

-----------------------------
The code is simple:
import matplotlib
import matplotlib.pyplot as pylab
pylabFigure = pylab.figure()
pylabFigure.clf()
pylab.rcdefaults()
pylab.plot(p[0::2], p[1::2], 'b-', linewidth=3)
pylab.title('Endpointing Plot for '+StepMillName)
pylab.xlabel('Mill Distance ('+m_unit+')')
pylab.ylabel('~ Electron response ~' )
pylab.grid(True)
pylabFigure.savefig('EPP_'+StepMillName+'.png',
facecolor='lightgrey', edgecolor='w')
pylab.close('all')
pylabFigure = None
I can put this code in a simple program and generate many images without
seeing the allocate bitmap error.
Perhaps it is colliding with something else in my main app. Is there a
command that can clear, flush, or unselect the palette and/or colormap?
I don't see the allocate error if I switch the backend to 'SVG', that
has it own set of issues though: telling me it can't use, but then
generating SVG files anyway.
thanks
