Hello, using matplotlib 0.98 with mpl_toolkit Basemap:
I'm trying to create a plot with a series of ellipses over a map. I've
followed the tutorial, and can create the same figure as shown here:
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/users/screenshots.html#ellipses
I can also create a series of ellipses over a map.
Now I am trying to label each circle using the following snippet:
for item in ells:
#ells is now a tuple in the form: (Ellipse, (x,y)) and (x,y) is the same
as for the Ellipse
e = item[0]
xy = item[1]
ax.add_artist(e)
e.set_clip_box(ax.bbox)
e.set_alpha(.7)
pyplot.text(xy[0],xy[1],e.get_label())
however, for some reason it fails. Can someone provide some ideas on what I
am doing wrong? Also, is there more direct way to set the plots so that the
labels are drawn?
What is strange, is that it seems to work (at least debugging print
statements after the loop are printed)... and I can move the text function
out of the loop to label the 'last' ellipse...
As it is it fails when savefig() or show() are called. The error is:
TypeError: CXX : Error creating object of type N2Py3IntE
THoughts?
Thanks,
john
