I have an application where I would like to use show in a loop but as stated
in 18.1 of the manual that does not work.
# WARNING : illustrating how NOT to use show
for i in range(10):
    # make figure i
    show()
So I made a workaround in a custom wxDialog with a wxStaticBitmap and a few
buttons and put the matplotlib figure in the bitmap with something like:
        wi,hi = figure.get_size_inches()
        width,height = bitmap_plot.GetSize()
        dpi = int(min(width/wi,height/hi))
        figure.savefig('/tmp/tmp.png',dpi = dpi)
        image = wx.Image('/tmp/tmp.png',wx.BITMAP_TYPE_ANY)
        bitmap = wx.BitmapFromImage(image)
        bitmap_plot.SetBitmap(bitmap)
Thus scaling the figure using the dpi option of savefig and then loading it
into the wxStaticBitmap.

To me it seems there might be a lot of unnecessary data handling. What is
the clever solution?
mant thanks
