I'd like to plot some arrows. I can use the pyplot.arrow function but it
does not give an arrow head. I am trying to use FancyArrow in the following
way:
import matplotlib as mpl
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.figure(None)
ax = plt.gca()
arr = mpl.patches.FancyArrowPatch((0,0),(3,2),arrowstyle='simple')
ax.add_patch(arr)
plt.show()
but I get "ValueError: Given lines do not intersect" in the bezier.py file.
(Full traceback below)
Thanks for any hints!
