Re: [matplotlib-devel] problems with labeling contour lines in 0.98.3
Hi, Yes, I have fixed the problem in my version of matplotlib, but I haven't had the time to look over all of my changes and commit them to SVN. Next week things should get better. If you are really in a hurry, you can try applying the attached patch set to SVN, but better to wait and let me make sure it is all kosher.
