Hi, the below code works for me but in case there are few values to be rendered it chokes (I think this is the culprit or maybe one of the values isn't unique in those input lists?):
pylab.clf() if longlegends: F.set_size_inches( (DefaultSize[0], DefaultSize[1]*2.5) ) _e = [] _ee = [] _eee = [] for _name in _unique_names: _d = [] for _i, _name2, _position in zip(range(len(_matching[1])), _matching[1], _matching[11]): if _name == _name2: _d.append(_matching[11][_i]) _c = _colors_for_unique_names[_name] _l = _name if _d: _e.append(_d) _ee.append(_c) _eee.append(_l) if longlegends: pylab.subplot(211) params = {'legend.fontsize': 8} pylab.rcParams.update(params) pylab.hist(_e, bins=50, histtype='barstacked', align='mid', color=_ee, log=False, label=_eee) pylab.title("some title") pylab.xlabel("... position") pylab.ylabel("Occurrence ... (barstacked)") pylab.ylim(ymin=0) pylab.xlim(xmin=0, xmax=1200) if longlegends: pylab.legend(loc='upper left', bbox_to_anchor = (-0.15, -0.1), ncol=2) F.savefig(prefix + ".png", dpi=100) else: F.savefig(prefix + ".png", dpi=100) F.savefig(prefix + ".png", dpi=100) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/figure.py", line 1172, in savefig self.canvas.print_figure(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/backend_bases.py", line 2017, in print_figure **kwargs) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/backends/backend_gtkagg.py", line 103, in print_png return agg.print_png(filename, *args, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/backends/backend_agg.py", line 445, in print_png FigureCanvasAgg.draw(self) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/backends/backend_agg.py", line 400, in draw self.renderer = self.get_renderer() File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/backends/backend_agg.py", line 411, in get_renderer self.renderer = RendererAgg(w, h, self.figure.dpi) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/backends/backend_agg.py", line 59, in __init__ self._renderer = _RendererAgg(int(width), int(height), dpi, debug=False) ValueError: width and height must each be below 32768 Could anybody make something out of the error message? I tried NOT to specify bins=50 but that does not help. I have matplotlib-1.1.0. Thanks for any clues, Martin BTW: The ugly for loop I had to introduce because I could simply pass nested lists with data values and color to pylab.hist(). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow!
