[Matplotlib-users] Transparent?

[Matplotlib-users] [newbie] live plots of multiple lines
Hi All, Apologies if I'm missing anything obvious... How do I plot lines point-by-point as opposed to by passing arrays? I'm guessing something like: plot([x],[y]) ...but that feels a bit weird to me. In any case, using that, I don't know how to plot more than one line at a time, so thought I'd ask here... Hope you can help! cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

[Matplotlib-users] problem freezing matplotlib with py2exe
Hello, I just upgraded to the most recent version of matplotlib. I'm trying to freeze my wx app with py2exe. I'm getting this error: error: cannot copy ...mpl-data/matplotlib.nib. doesn't exist or is not a regular file how do I correct this error? thanks!

[Matplotlib-users] Transforms examples
Any current transforms examples? The transforms docs suggest looking in /units for transforms examples; the current matplotlib examples has /units without transforms. (I want something a bit more detailed than the offset.) If the transforms are currently too much in flux, I'll do something one-off, but I'd like to do it the Right Way if I can.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Transforms examples
Can you be a bit more specific about what you're trying to do? (Are you working with the latest SVN trunk, or the latest release 0.91.x? The two are considerably different wrt to the transforms framework(s)). Cheers, Mike Chloe Lewis wrote: Any current transforms examples?

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Transforms examples
Am I correct that you would like to add new kinds of plots to matplotlib that transform the raw data in some new way? Though transforms are involved, at the higher level you see this referred to as projections a lot in the mpl code. There are a number of approaches you could take, all of which have different tradeoffs, rather than there being one Right Way. In matplotlib-0.91 (and earlier) there is an underlying framework for doing transformations (in _transforms.cpp). This framework, while its does it job well, is kind of obscure and difficult to extend with new kinds of transformations. But it's certainly doable, and you can look at the code for polar plots (in axes.py) for an example. As a result, the current SVN trunk has been heavily refactored to make adding new kinds of projections easier. I'm biased because I did a lot of that work, so I wouldn't want to claim that it is significantly easier until someone else comes along and uses the new framework to build something new. (I think the soil texture triangle plot you suggest seems like it would be a reasonably good fit, though). If you decide to take this approach, there is documentation for making new projections here: http://matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/*checkout*/matplotlib/trunk/matplotlib/doc/devel/add_new_projection.rst Again, that documentation has largely gone unused by anyone but myself, so please let me know where it needs improvement. Of course, the downside is that it may be a number of months until the SVN trunk is released as a stable version. Alternatively to all of the above, you could take the approach of basemap (a toolkit extension to matplotlib). It (essentially) does all of the transformation of the data into a given projection internally and then passes that along as a regular Cartesian 2D plot to matplotlib. That approach does work well, and has shown to be rather robust to internal changes in mpl, since it primarily uses the public (and more stable) APIs. Hope that helps. Please ask if you have any more questions as you go. Mike Chloe Lewis wrote: I stick to releases, so, 0.91.2; although if the transforms are about to change a lot, maybe I'll put off the 'right way'. The first thing I'm writing is an easy version of the 'soil texture triangle' -- plotting x+y+z=100, but on an equilateral triangle: http://www.uwsp.edu/geo/faculty/ritter/glossary/s_u/soil_texture_triangle.html Scatters and patches on this are handy. There's another handful of triangular, sort-of-rigorous 3-variable graphs commonly used by ecosystem scientists, which I'd like to extend to.

[Matplotlib-users] Colorbar requires mappable?
Hi, In working on creating updating pcolor plots, I noticed that I can't create colorbars (which should be static) without first displaying an image. I have a fixed Normalize object and colormap, so I would think that the colorbar wouldn't actually need any information from the image itself. Is there any to create a colorbar without first actually plotting an image? If not, is there any reason colorbar couldn't be modified to work using only a norm and a cmap?
