Hi all, I have been using backend-neutral matplotlib (0.99) widgets to implement a simple GUI control, which can be opened from IPython pylab session. The widgets are all contained in a dedicated figure, however if this figure is the current one, pyplot commands draw through the widget elements.
Is there any option to lock a matplotlib figure and thus protect it from pyplot commands? If not, are there any plans to add such function? I think this would surely make the matplotlib widgets more useful. Thank you, Pavol PS: Actually, the built-in subplot_tool function seems to suffer from the same issue - here is an example which draws a line through the Reset button: $ ipython -pylab In [1]: subplot_tool() # click any slider In [2]: plot(range(2)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
