Hi,
I'm running into this RuntimeError: Could not open facefile
c:\Python32\lib\site-packages\matplotlib\mpl-data\fonts\ttf\Vera.ttf;
Cannot_Open_Resource when I'm trying to save out a series of *.png files in
a loop. It crashes on this error after many passes through the loop and
successful files get created, but then always on the same pass it does
this. The full traceback is here:

RuntimeError: Could not open facefile

Cannot_Open_Resource
I've tried the various fixes that have been suggested - removing the
fontList.py3k.cache and even the removing the .matplotlib directory.
However when I run my script that's producing the error the directory gets
recreated along with the fontList.py3k.cache which must be pointing to the
wrong path?
When I check the path
c:\Python32\lib\site-packages\matplotlib\mpl-data\fonts\ttf\Vera.ttf where
matplotlib is looking for the resource it cannot open - the Vera.ttf is
there.
This only happens after many iterations through the loop that is saving out
the *.png files and I have no idea why.
The relevant code from my script is here:
for p in plotData[k]["data"]:
#print("p in plotData[k]:",p)
a = numpy.array((loc[0],loc[1]))
b = numpy.array((p[0],p[1]))
distValue = (numpy.sqrt(numpy.sum((a-b)**2) ))/86.0 #divide by
86 because that was the ppi on the display used to collect the data
if p[2] == 1:
hit_x.append(loc[0]-p[0])
hit_y.append(loc[1]-p[1])
frame_hit_x = loc[0]-p[0]
frame_hit_y = loc[1]-p[1]
print("frame_x:", frame_hit_x)
files = []
if size == (0.25,0.25) and makeMovie:
fig = plt.figure()
print("fig:", fig)
plt.plot(frame_hit_x,frame_hit_y,color='green',marker='o',linestyle='')
plt.axis('scaled')
plt.axis([-100,100,-100,100])
fname =
"subj{:g}_size{:g}_hit_x{:g}.png".format(Subject,btnSize,frame_hit_x)
print('saving frame', fname)
fig.savefig(fname, transparent = True)
files.append(fname)
I'm on a Win7 64bit using python 3.2 and matplotlib version 1.2.x
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Andy
