shape = fig.canvas.get_width_height()[::-1] + (4,) im = np.frombuffer(fig.canvas.buffer_rgba(0,0), dtype=np.uint8).reshape(shape) Using buffer_rgba is more efficient than using tostring_rgb as no memory is allocated. But, I believe that "im" is a read-only "view" of the canvas. So, you must make a copy if you want to show it with imshow as in your original code. If you're using PIL, import PIL.Image im2=PIL.Image.frombuffer("RGBA", fig.canvas.get_width_height(), fig.canvas.buffer_rgba(0,0), "raw", "RGBA", 0, 1) Regards, -JJ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
