Mauro: Don't know why that would be. Here's what I get % ipython --pylab In [3] from mpl_toolkits.basemap import Basemap In [4]: m = Basemap() In [5]: c = m.drawcountries() # map pops up with country boundaries drawn In [6]: type(c) Out[6]: <class 'matplotlib.collections.LineCollection'> In [7]: help(c.remove) Help on method remove in module matplotlib.artist: remove(self) method of matplotlib.collections.LineCollection instance Remove the artist from the figure if possible. The effect will not be visible until the figure is redrawn, e.g., with :meth:`matplotlib.axes.Axes.draw_idle`. Call :meth:`matplotlib.axes.Axes.relim` to update the axes limits if desired. In [8]: c.remove() In [9]: draw() # countries disappear from map. -Jeff > 2008/12/5 Jeff Whitaker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > >> Mauro Cavalcanti wrote: >> >>> Dear Jeff, >>> >>> Thanks for your fast reply.
