Yes. Thanks for spotting that. Slip of the brain.

Did you mean "Reply All"?

Some of us would appreciate it if people just responded to the list and not 
including our individual addresses at all. With very rare exceptions, everyone 
who posts is already on the list. I subscribe to the list via the GMane NNTP 
interface and hate receiving private-looking (hence urgent-looking) replies in 
my inbox.

The default "Reply To" on this list is set to go to the original
poster. It's a setting in the mailing list software, not anyone's
e-mail client.

If you post a question and someone responds using "Reply To", then
their response will go directly to you. If they respond using "Reply
To All" (as I have here) then the e-mail is copied to the list address
as well.

The moral? Always use "Reply To", and hope everyone else remembers to
do so as well :)

Scott

Add a kwarg to your formatter initialization.  See below.

[Matplotlib-users] scientific notation \times symbol

[Hao Wen]

Hi there:

I tried to plot large numbers and scientific notation has to be used.
But instead of "\times" symbol, it used "e", which cannot be accepted as
publishable. Anyone know how to deal with that?

My original code is:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
from matplotlib.ticker import ScalarFormatter

# data generation
x = np.arange(1,1e3,20)
y = x**2

formatter = ScalarFormatter()
formatter.set_scientific(True)
formatter.set_powerlimits((-3,3))

fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
ax.xaxis.set_major_formatter(formatter)
ax.yaxis.set_major_formatter(formatter)
ax.plot(x,y)

plt.show()

Re: [Matplotlib-users] I Need a Couple of Tips for Windows to Get Started on IPython

[Wayne Watson]

I thought the console was the only way to use IPython. I go to 
Start->Allprograms->IPython, and select IPython. Oh, I see *Console" is 
something of a replacement for the Win Cmd Console. Is there some site 
that shows off it's features?

Re: [Matplotlib-users] I Need a Couple of Tips for Windows to Get Started on IPython

[Wayne Watson]

OK, here I go. Quick Edit is checked, and I'm running from what looks 
like the Win XP command console. I am not in full screen mode. I've 
applied changes to the window. It has scroll bars side and bottom. I've 
moused the area, and now am going to Edit on the window menu. It works!  
I just pasted it into a txt file. Thanks. Pretty convoluted, but it works.

Is it possible to paste from outside? For example copy and paste from a 
txt file.

I've finally gotten around to installing from SVN HEAD in a virtual

much for this :)

In Windows I recommend running iPython inside Console 

particularly for its vastly improved copy and pasting.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] I Need a Couple of Tips for Windows to Get Started on IPython

[Wayne Watson]

Right-click does nothing on the IPython window.

The Windows command console is, I think, a lost cause all together. I've 
tried a right-click on it with the same result as in IPython.
I'm using Win XP, and I hope they improve on Win 7, which I plan to 
install on all my machines this month.

[Matplotlib-users] positions of the ticks and ticklabels

[Abhimanyu Lad]

Hi,

How do I get the coordinates of the ticks and their labels in a coordinate
system that I can feed to figtext or text?
I want to display some additional text near one of the ticklabels on the x
axis. Although I could get the coordinates for figtext using trial and
error, but is there a correct way of doing this (using transformations?) so
that my text does not move relative to the tick labels.

Thanks!
Abhi

[Matplotlib-users] PolyCollection not supported by legend

[Chuck Pepe-Ranney]

I apologize for my previous posts.  I see that the PolyCollection object is
not supported by the legend command.  I will use a proxy artist as described
here .

[Matplotlib-users] legend for area chart made with fill_between method

[Chuck Pepe-Ranney]

How might create a legend for an area chart made with PolyCollection objects
via the fill_between method?  For example, on the following chart,

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
ind = np.arange(3)
y1 = np.array([1,2,3])
y2 = y1 * 2
a = ax.fill_between(ind, y1, np.zeros(len(ind)), facecolor='r', label='a')
b = ax.fill_between(ind, y2, y1, facecolor='b', label='b')
plt.show()

I would like to create a legend that displays the label for a and b and the
corresponding fill color.  Unlike with non-collections objects, when I call
ax.legend() I get an AttributeError and the following output,

Re: [Matplotlib-users] cone plots

[Jae-Joon Lee]

I updated the axes_grid toolkit in the svn, and I hope it is more useful.

Check the example

examples/axes_grid/demo_floating_axes.py

The output is attached.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] I Need a Couple of Tips for Windows to Get Started on IPython

[Wayne Watson]

Hi, I'm using IPython raw. I guess I'm not sure what a shell is in this
case. I used to work with Linux years ago and the shell concept was
clear there. I'm now simply a Win XP user. What advantages would be
available to use a shell?

In part of the thread above,(posted 57 minutes after the hour, I asked
how copy and paste operate? Quick IPyton seems to think it works quite
like a Win copy and paste. It doesn't work for me.

Below you've manage to post a session. How did that happen? Is there a
file that I can pick up that contains the log? From the ref manual, I
see this:
===


  Manual capture of command output¶
 


If the input line begins with two exclamation marks, !!, the command is
executed but its output is captured and returned as a python list, split
on newlines. Any output sent by the subprocess to standard error is
printed separately, so that the resulting list only captures standard
output. The !! syntax is a shorthand for the %sx magic command.

Finally, the %sc magic (short for ‘shell capture’) is similar to %sx,
but allowing more fine-grained control of the capture details, and ...
===end

Maybe this is somehow you did it?

Copy and paste from a Windows command shell is different that copy and paste
from *nix command shell.

Right-click in the command window
Choose Mark from the drop-down menu
Select the (rectangular) region of text you want to copy.
Hit Return.

That does a copy operation.  Then go to your other application, and paste
however you like.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] I Need a Couple of Tips for Windows to Get Started on IPython

[Wayne Watson]

Well, that's interesting, but how did you copy and paste?
Quick Python offers this, but no explanation how to copy and paste.
The %hist command can show you all previous input, without line numbers 
if desired (option -n) so you can directly copy and paste code either 
back in IPython or in a text editor. You can also save all your history 
by turning on logging via %logstart; these logs can later be either 
reloaded as IPython sessions or used as code for your programs.
Aside from that, here's an example of what I'd like to copy. If it 
doesn't make it through, it's just a screen capture of part of the 
window's contents show the result of ls, cd, etc.

 If I want to execute a program with %run, I need to be where abc.py is

 Dir doesn't work and I haven't been able to even see what's in the 
 folder.

[Matplotlib-users] formlayout only for Qt back end?

[Yeates, Mathew C (388D)]

Hi
I discovered "forrmlayout" by Pierre Raybaut 
(http://code.google.com/p/formlayout/) and I would like to use it for plot 
configuration. Is it only for the PyQt backend? I'm using GtkAgg.

[Matplotlib-users] Baseline pngmath

[David Arnold]

All,

I tried using sphinx.ext.pngmath. See:  
http://msemac.redwoods.edu/~darnold/html/cylinders.html

Note in Exercise 1 how z = 6 - 2x^2 is placed so its baseline does not  
align (it's lower) with the baseline of the text. How can I align the  
baselines?

David.

[Matplotlib-users] Replying with Thunderbird. Reply All doesn't cut it all the time.

[Wayne Watson]

I see a variance with replying to a post on this list and other Python 
lists. It appears to be a difference between the way people post. If I 
see From: a...@xyz.net and To: matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net, 
then Reply All gets both. If I see, From: joe...@xyz.net and To: my 
e-mail address (or any personal e-address), then Reply All only goes to 
the From e-address, which means I have to fill in the e-address for this 
mail list. Apparently, some people from outside using a mail program 
like Thunderbird. How do I get two for price of one, so to speak?

Comments?

Re: [Matplotlib-users] I Need a Couple of Tips for Windows to Get Started on IPython

[Wayne Watson]

Good. Thanks. Interesting that ls and pwd are used for Win, but that's 
fine. How do I copy parts of the window?  All I can do at the moment is 
sweep out a rectangular area with the mouse. It looks like I 
underestimated the need for  automagic.

[Matplotlib-users] greppable cheat sheet for matplotlib ?

[denis]

(Old) folks,
   is there a greppable list of matplotlib functions and attributes
along the lines of PyQt4.api
 PyQt4.QtGui.QAbstractScrollArea.viewport() -> QWidget
 PyQt4.QtGui.QAbstractScrollArea.maximumViewportSize() -> QSize
 ...
Grep is really fast, really simple, and can | less
to grep again / highlight to home in.


Thanks, cheers

This suggestion did not resolve the problem.

But here is the solution. I have no idea why the first version is not
working.
I changed the threading technique:
  - from gobject.idle_add(run) to the fig.canvas.mpl_connect('draw_event',
start_anim)

I think it can be only that... Any ideas?

import matplotlib
matplotlib.use('GTKAgg')
from pylab import figure, show
import gobject, gtk
import time

fig = figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(111)
ax.set_xlim(0, 30)

#fig.subplots_adjust(left=0.3, bottom=0.3) # check for flipy bugs
ax.grid() # to ensure proper background restore

ax.get_xaxis().set_animated(True)

fig.canvas.draw()


def run():
if run.background is None:
run.background = fig.canvas.copy_from_bbox(fig.bbox)

fig.canvas.restore_region(run.background)
i = run.cnt
ax.set_xlim(0+i,30+i)
fig.draw_artist(ax.get_xaxis())

fig.canvas.blit()

if run.cnt == 180:
gtk.main_quit()
raise SystemExit

run.cnt += 1
time.sleep(0.1) 
return True



def start_anim(event):
gobject.idle_add(run)
fig.canvas.mpl_disconnect(start_anim.cid)

start_anim.cid = fig.canvas.mpl_connect('draw_event', start_anim)


run.background = None
run.cnt = 0

show()

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Customize/disable keyboard shortcuts

[Matthias Michler]

Hi Jorge, Hello list,

unfortunately I cannot help you, but I understand your problem and would like 
to know about a solution, too. I encountered this problem in April/may 2007 
(http://old.nabble.com/skip-mpl-axes-interaction-during-key_press_event's-td10221576.html)
 
because of the 'l'ogarthmic scaling, 'g'ridding etc., but in the meanwhile 
the number of keyboard-shortcuts has even increased. Therefore in my opinion 
it is important to support disabling of these keyboard-shortcuts, because 
otherwise there is not much space left for individual (meaningful) shortcuts.

Furthermore I think this can also useful for buttons and sliders from 
matplotlib.widgets, because one don't want to scale or set grid upon these 
widgets, isn't it? 

What do other users think about that?

Thanks in advance for any comments or even solutions.

Kind regards,
Matthias

[Matplotlib-users] textbox / prompt in mpl / inputbutton

[Matthias Michler]

Hello list,

are there any new developments about a field to input text or numbers, which 
was discussed in thread "Prompt in MPL - NEVER MIND" in June 2007?

Especially I am interested if there exists a version of John Hunters 
textbox2.py working with current svn, because I am not able to resolve the 
differences between 0.91.2 and 1.0.svn.

Kind regards,
Matthias

You do not have the freetype2 headers installed. On ubuntu, I think
they are provided by the libfreetype6-dev package.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Sphinx and ams-latex

[Michael Droettboom]

The mathmpl uses matplotlib's built-in mathtext rendering engine to 
render the math, which does not currently support any of the "grid" 
environments from ams-latex, such as "align".  If you need those, look 
at sphinx.ext.pngmath.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] 3D

[Pierre de Buyl]

Hello,

The Axes3D constructor accepts the keywords "azim" and "elev" to set  
the viewpoint of the figure.

As for the title, I could not find information in the examples or the  
api, so I suggest to add text with the text method. This solution  
lacks an automatic placement for the title, however.

I give an example in your code:

from mpl_toolkits.mplot3d import axes3d
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np

fig=plt.figure()
ax=axes3d.Axes3D(fig,azim=120)
x=np.linspace(-2,2,40)
y=np.linspace(-2,2,40)

X, Y=np.meshgrid(x,y)
Z=6-2*X**2

ax.plot_wireframe(X,Y,Z)
ax.set_xlabel('x-axis')
ax.set_ylabel('y-axis')
ax.set_zlabel('z-axis')
