[Matplotlib-users] twinx doesn't keep xticks parameters
Hi, all is in the subject: # ax=axes() setp(ax.get_xticklabels(), rotation=30, fontsize=14) twinx() It's not really a problem because we can manually modify the xticks, but it would be great if it was done automatically.

If I adjust simple_plot_fps.py to have 100,000 data points rather than 1,000 I see something that starts to match with what you're seeing: GtkAgg: wallclock: 4.23297405243 user: 3.33 fps: 23.6240522057 Gtk: wallclock: 15.0203828812 user: 14.92 fps: 6.65761990165 TkAgg: wallclock: 4.8252530098 user: 4.67 fps: 20.7243018754 You can see that the Gtk time is starting to explode. If I go to 1,000,000 points, Gtk runs out of memory before the first plot, whereas the other two continue to chug along at a reasonable pace. From looking at the code, I suspect the crucial difference is that the Gdk backend uses the Python sequence API (rather slow) to access the data as it gets rendered, whereas GtkAgg uses the numpy array interface which is essentially raw access to a C array. This is not likely to be the culprit -- for drawing markers, the old matplotlib API made a separate call to draw_polygon for every marker, with a new gc each time. Many moons ago, we implemented draw_markers as a renderer method to avoid this problem. For hundreds of thousands of markers, we saw performance benefits of 25x to 100x. The backends which implement draw_markers (Agg and PS) get the benefits, but the other backends which did not are still slow. Basically it is a problem with a lot of redundant function call overhead. The backend_bases renderer method _draw_markers discusses this a little bit (it is underscore hidden). Markers are not the issue here. These benchmarks were done with lines. There are markers for the ticks, of course, but the number of those are fixed. I agree it's function call overhead, but I believe it's in the overhead of PySequence_GetItem vs. array[index]. In both cases, the line is still getting drawn with a single Python - C function call. My guess is this difference will not be so pronounced on the trunk. Actually, I'm getting surprising results there. Numbers are in fps. Gtk GtkAgg 0.91.2, 1000 points 50 26 0.91.2, 1 points6 23 trunk, 1000 points 38 31 trunk, 1 points 3 9 So, yes, the ratio between Gtk and GtkAgg on the trunk is not as pronounced. I'm a little disappointed by the timings on the trunk -- while one could say that Agg is a little better on the trunk with 1000 points, it doesn't scale nearly as well. That's certainly something to look into -- and I don't have any thoughts offhand. I would expect the trunk to do better since it doesn't perform a memory copy on the data with each call to draw_line/draw_path.

It is passed numpy arrays now -- but they are accessed with all of the function call overhead of the Python sequence API, rather than the numpy array interface. which is probably unlikely to happen in the official codebase. That was true before the array interface, when supporting arrays essentially meant a dependency on numpy. That's not longer true, so it's quite likely that the pygtk folks would accept a patch -- someone still would need to write that patch, though! Unless I misunderstand, I thought that functionality was slated for inclusion in Python 3.0 -- still a long ways off in terms of adoption rate. That patch would only make sense on a pygtk branch specifically intended for Python 3.0.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] TrueType font embedding in eps problem.
There was a change between 0.90 to 0.91 as to how the TrueType to Type 42 (which is essentially a thin wrapper around a TrueType font) conversion is done. In 0.90 it was done in Python -- in 0.91 when font subsetting was added, this conversion is done in some borrowed C code called ttconv. That's just a guess as to what may be the specific cause. I don't have a copy of Illustrator, so I haven't done any testing with that. I'm happy to hear of a positive report from Rob. Perhaps you both (Rob and Jordan) are using different versions of Illustrator? Note that ps.useafm essentially overrides the ps.fonttype setting. If ps.useafm is True, you will always only get one of the 14 builtin Postscript fonts, which are not embedded in the file because all Postscript interpreters are required to support them. If ps.useafm is False, then the other setting kicks in. Type 42 essentially includes the whole Truetype font somewhat verbatim in the Ps file. Type 3 will include only the used characters, using a format that is more native to Postscript. All of them *should* be able to be editable on a purely theoretical level, though I would imagine Type 3 to be broken if you try to add a character that wasn't embedded in the file. (This is different from how matplotlib does SVG font embedding where the original text really is lost). But I don't really know what Illustrator's abilities and limitations are in that regard. Hopefully Rob's suggestions will work for you. Otherwise, I may want to revisit pulling the old Type 42 code back out of SVN to see if that solves your problem. A good place to start might be if you could send me (off list) two eps files of the same plot -- one created with 0.90.1, and one with 0.91.2.

To be honest, I'm a little confused by the bug report, not out of any lack of clarity on Darren's part, but I think due to insufficient understanding of the problem. As assumption about the purpose of cla is that is should return the plot to a pristine state -- and in this case that means linear axes. But are you suggesting that sometimes that is not the case? If you have hold=True, and the x or y scale is log, repeated calls to plot() will add new lines to the plot without changing the scaling. If hold is instead False, one might reasonably expect that future calls to plot would replace the old line with the new one, again without changing the scaling. That would be consistent. Instead, the scaling changes. That indeed is a problem. I suspect it has something to do with the extra step that log scales do to round to the nearest decade. I can have a look when I get a chance, or let me know if you'd like to tackle it, Darren.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] multiline mlath text
There is no way to insert newlines in the mathtext part of the string (by that I mean between the '$'). However, you can put newline characters outside of '$'. It gets a bit hairy because of Python's string escaping rules, but you could do something like: $\\alpha=%G$\n$\\beta=%G$ Note the double \\ where we really want a backslash, since we can't use raw string literals and write a newline character. One other caveat: The spacing of the lines doesn't take into account the height of the math expression, so you can really only do simple one-liners (i.e. no fractions or exponents) in the math expression. Your example looks like it will work though. This is really sort of unsupported and my example works only by accident... it's something I didn't think about while re-writing mathtext recently.

Also -- for others on the list: Is there a TeX or LaTeX standard for putting newlines in the middle of a math expression that perhaps we should support?

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Cross hair and polygon drawing tools.
Hi all, Thanks for the helpful responses. I had switched back to Matlab, meanwhile. lasso_demo.py does look close to what I had wanted to implement. Earlier, while checking it out, I must have right-clicked first and after that it didn't seem to work ( perhaps a bug? ). I'll look in to Rob's solution as well, once I upgrade to the latest release. Thanks, Venkat.

The code seems to be quite effective. matplotlib implements these algorithms in C -- see matplotlib.nxutils.pnpoly for a testing inclusion of a single point, and matplotlib.nxutils.points_inside_poly for testing multiple points. There is some example code using the latter function at http://matplotlib.sf.net/examples/lasso_demo.py. Not sure why this example is not working for Venkat. This is probably not the reason for Venkat (I think he said he was using 0.87)... but lasso_demo.py is currently broken on the trunk, and working for me in 0.91.2. I'm looking into it.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Is Gtk draw() slow?
All very helpful information. Thanks. This is probably something to move to the pygtk list. Personally, I don't consider it a high priority since the Gdk backend is limited in a number of other ways. Maybe someone more motivated (who uses X remotely, for instance) wants to take the charge. It would probably benefit more than just mpl.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] TrueType font embedding in eps problem.
Rob Hetland wrote: I really like Arev Sans, but others like the new STIX fonts. This setup is for Arev Sans. The important stuff is what begins with mathtext. If you want serif fonts, this should be enough to get you started on customizing. Just make sure whatever fontset you pick has all of the math symbols built in, or change fallback_to_cm to True.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Obtaining set_under and set_over colors
Carol Leger wrote: Hi folks, Is there a way to get the colors assigned with set_under and set over besides looking at _rgba_set_under and _rgba_set_over? Sample code fragment: from pylab import * cmap = cm.get_cmap('jet') cmap.set_over('wheat') # Make some kind of polygon to fill x = ... y = ... # Use the over-the-top color to fill the polygon clrstr = rgb2hex(cmap._rgba_over[:3]) fill(x,y,clrstr) There is no better way at present. I could add getters for these properties if there is sufficient need; it never occurred to me that anyone would need getters for them, and I did not want to clutter the API. Did you resolve the problem you were having earlier with the colorbar diplay of the under value? Eric - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
