Just make sure you use interactive mode and get rid of the show calls: import matplotlib.pyplot as plt plt.ion() # set interactive mode plt.plot(foo) # plot something bar() # do stuff while the plot is visible plt.close() # if you want to close the plot window from the script This works in mpl 1.1.0 al least with tkagg, gtkagg and qt4agg backends.
