A leading space is missing in the output of mpl.text(1, 1, '% .3f' % 1.234)
if used within the TeX backend. Whereas it is not missing in the plain non-TeX backend. Here is an example: import pylab as mpl #mpl.rcParams['text.usetex'] = False mpl.rcParams['text.usetex'] = True mpl.plot([1,3,2]) mpl.text(1, 2.0, '% .3f' % 1.234) mpl.text(1, 1.9, '% .3f' % -1.234) mpl.show() Ciao Andreas ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BlackBerry® DevCon Americas, Oct. 18-20, San Francisco, CA http://p.sf.net/sfu/rim-devcon-copy2 _______________________________________________ Matplotlib-users mailing list Matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/matplotlib-users
