Re: [Matplotlib-users] How to overlay an image on a multi plot? (Edit: how to plot sparklines on an existing plot)

OK, I am finally posting some code. The graphic it will produce is similar to above. I mocked up some time series data and fit one of the regression lines using PyIMSL Studio (Scipy for the other one). Full disclosure: I am on the PyIMSL Studio team at Rogue Wave Software. You can use PyIMSL Studi

Hi All, I used the http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/pylab_examples/scatter_hist.html scatter_hist example from the Gallery to create the following visualization: http://old.nabble.com/file/p28111498/Full5%252B8%252B2_vs_Bulk1%252B2.png What I would like to do is overlay some http
