Do you want the background of the row labels to match your line colors?
The answer seems to be so trivial and I'm not sure if this is what you want.

the_table = table(cellText=cellText,
 rowLabels=rowLabels, rowColours=linecolor,
 colLabels=colLabels,
 loc='bottom')

I think it means that Darren, who did most of the heavy lifting for
these features, was getting tired of the endless line of additional
things TeX users wanted to do and the difficulties supporting these
across all platforms (eg MikTex on Windows) and drew a line in the
sand saying "I'll add this stuff but if you report problems I may not
stay up all night trying to fix them".

We would definitely be leaving these as shortcuts and for backward
compatibility.  And yes the standard is to use degrees -- for
consistency with the text "rotation" property, we may want
markerrotation specified in degrees.

You can think about what the right way to do this is.  My first
inclination is that that left, right, etc, apply to the unrotated
marker, and then you apply the rotation.  So 'd' with markerrotation=0
and fillstyle='left' would be identical to 'd' with fillstyle='right'
and markerrotation=180.  But any convention you want to apply would
probably be fine as long as it is documented.  Note I am not sure this
is a terribly useful feature, but it might be marginally useful and it
seems like something that could be implemented unobtrusively.  So
don't kill yourself on it.

Thanks again for the nice work.

As I said, it is not supposed to work, because of some technical
reason. When there is a single line of text, it is hardly possible to
get to know the original baseline of the text.

By the way, the original problem that "\n\n %b" didn't work seems like
a actual bug (it is supposed to work without escaping '\n'). This
should now be fixed in the svn (r8135 in maint. branch and r8136 in
HEAD) . Still, it is recommended to adjust the pad of the ticklabels
instead of fiddling with newlines and etc.

You're right!
\vspace{10pts} adds space (seems about 10 points) but it also
prints a "s" before the space, which I didn't see before.
Now, \vspace{10pt} doesn't work for me... it simply does nothing.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] DateFormatter + Latex issue

2010-02-16 Thread Jae-Joon Lee
If what you want is to have more padding for the major tick labels, I
recommend you to use

rcParams['xtick.major.pad'] = 20

If you don't like to change the global setting, you may set the
ticklabel padding for an specific axis. Try

for tck in ax.xaxis.get_major_ticks():
tck.set_pad(20)
tck.label1 = tck._get_text1()

Good tip. I also like \usapackage{fourier} to get the utopia fonts, which are 
particularly useful since I'm always plotting concentrations and having a 
upright mu ($\othermu$) is really nice.

Can you (or someone else) confirm this? I don't think "pts" is a
proper tex unit and it should be \vspace{10pt}. Maybe this is a typo
in the email. I'm asking this because it does not work for me, and I
don't think it is supposed to work (but I may be wrong).

Yes, the inputenc package from latex lets you use unicode.
Try adding this to your script:
plt.rc('text.latex', preamble='\usepackage[utf]{inputenc}')

Note that this setting is not officially supported, whatever
that means :)

I also like the txfonts package:
\usepackage[varg]{txfonts}

which changes the default font to Times, including the text in
mathematical expressions. It looks great.

Cheers.

That did the trick.  I think it was problably the use of .ion() and .ioff() 
that did it but I just did the whole fix and didn't check to see what was 
what.

In theory, "\\n \\n %b" or r"\n \n %b", however only the former
seems to work in my computer.

There's another problem: \n is not a valid LaTeX command.
I tried with \\ and with \newline but neither appear to work. 
\vspace{10pts} does insert whitespace, however I am not sure if
it's the proper way of doing it...

Thank you, that's much easier than the animation option, which would

[Matplotlib-users] Suggestion for filtering by calendar?

2010-02-16 Thread David Carmean

I have a time-series dataset for which I need to make several plots; 
some of them will use all of the data, but others need not only to 
show just the usual business hours, but also take business holidays 
into account.  I thoght this might be sufficiently common in this 
community that somebody could easily point me to a python idiom/recipe 
they've used that I could extend to use masked arrays.

FWIW, the idea is not that I want to skip those time periods on the 
visualizations--and thus the recipes which treat the data as 
non-timeseries and construct custom ticks are not the solution for me.
One of the tasks will be to use a fill to shade in these "working hours" 
for some of the plots.  Another will be to calculate and plot running 
averages that exclude non-working hours.

Thanks.

This isn't accurate -- calling draw will not change the view limits.
In all likelihood what is happening is that when you add you your
overlay markers, eg by calling "plot" the view limits are getting
updated.  You can suppress this with

ax.set_autoscale_on(False)
ax.plot(overlay_markers)
fig.canvas.draw()

Yes, this is still accurate, and can be use for more efficient
updating, but it is unrelated to the problem with the view limits you
described.

Two problems here :

* There is no polygon attribute "set_xy"; it is a method, so you need
to call it like "poly.set_xy(xy_new)".  In general this is True for
all matplotlib set_* methods.  There is also an "xy" attribute which
you can access like "poly.xy = xy_new".  These two approaches do the
same thing

* The _update_transforms call was a hack I did on CirclePolygon to
work around a broken method.  it is not a method of Polygon or Patch
which is why you are not finding it.  For normal usage, the methods
that start with underscores are not meant to be called or used at the
user level, but because there was breakage in the CirclePolygon set_xy
method, I had to hack around it in the example I posted for you.  For
Polygon, simply setting the xy attribute should be sufficient.

[Matplotlib-users] add to a canvas while preserving overall formatting

2010-02-16 Thread C M
I have a mpl graph embedded in wxPython, and I call a function,
customize_plot() to do a number of things to the plot:  adjust the
spacing around it, set the formatters, fontsizes, axis limits, set a
grid, etc.

Now I want to potentially highlight points (by adding semi-transparent
points on top of existing ones) or annotate points with user
interaction.  If I do that, it seems I need to call canvas.draw().
But when I do that, it redraws the whole canvas and ignores some of
the formatting I laid out in customize_plot(), specifically the view
limits, and that's not acceptable.

I want it to simply add the new points without changing any of the
features of the plot.  Is there a way to do that?  In Googling for
hints, I found this point from JDH from almost two years ago, which I
think is applicable to my need:

Is this still the case in the current version of matplotlib?  Or is
there a newer way to do it now?

Thank you for any suggestions,

Thanks a lot, this seems to basically work.  For some reason the
bboxes are still restored at slightly the wrong place --- I have to
adjust them by one pixel in the y direction, but this is doable.

Maybe so.  What tool would you recommend for animated plots?

We have the natgrid toolkit for just this reason - it's slower than the 
default, and has a more restrictive license, but it often succeeds when 
the default algorithm fails.  This is discussed at the end of that wiki 
page.  Let us know if the natgrid toolkit also fails.

[Matplotlib-users] can't update transform for polygon animation

2010-02-16 Thread John Jameson
Hi John,

Thanks for your help on the animation with patches, and now
I'm trying to do the same idea for matplotlib.patches.Polygon 
ala your method for a circle patch:

initialize:
xy =[[x0,y0],[x1,y1],[x2,y2]]
  poly = Polygon( xy, animated=True,lw=2,fill=False )
add_patch(poly)
.
.
in the loop:
poly.set_xy = xy_new
poly.update_transorm()  (no such routine)   

  
The set_xy seems to work (at least no errors), but I don't see how 
to "update the transform" as for the circle.

here I am looking at:
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/artist_api.html?highlight=polygon#matp
lotlib.patches.Polygon 

thanks,
john

This isn't a memory leak.  The problem is that you keep adding new
patches to the axes when you want just one with different data.  Eg,
in your loop, run this code, and you will see that the number of
patches is growing:


   x_cir = 1.0 + 0.003*update_line.cnt
   cir =  CirclePolygon((x_cir, 1), 0.3, animated=True, \
   resolution=12, lw=2 )
   ax.add_patch(cir)
   ax.draw_artist(cir)
   print 'num patches=%d, mem usage=%d'%(
   len(ax.patches), cbook.report_memory(update_line.cnt))
   canvas.blit(ax.bbox)

You should add just one patch and then manipulate the data.  In this
case, you are using a CirclePolygon which derives from RegularPolygon
and so you can update the "xy" property

 
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/artist_api.html#matplotlib.patches.Reg
ularPolygon

But on testing this it looks like there is a bug in that the set_xy
property setter is ignored.  I worked around this in the func below by
setting the private variable directly, but this looks like a bug we
need to fix (Michael, shouldn't we respect the xy passed in in
patches.RegularPolygon._set_xy ?).  In the meantime, the following
workaround should work for you w/o leaking

def update_line():
   global x, y
   print update_line.cnt
   if update_line.background is None:
   update_line.background = canvas.copy_from_bbox(ax.bbox)
   canvas.restore_region(update_line.background)

   x_cir = 1.0 + 0.003*update_line.cnt

   if update_line.cir is None:
   cir =  CirclePolygon((x_cir, 1), 0.3, animated=True, \
   resolution=12, lw=2 )
   ax.add_patch(cir)
   update_line.cir = cir
   else:
   update_line.cir._xy = x_cir, 1
   update_line.cir._update_transform()
   ax.draw_artist(update_line.cir)
   print 'num patches=%d, xy=%s, mem usage=%d'%(
   len(ax.patches), update_line.cir.xy,
cbook.report_memory(update_line.cnt))
   canvas.blit(ax.bbox)

   if update_line.direction == 0:
   update_line.cnt += 1
   if update_line.cnt > 500:
   update_line.direction = 1
   else:
   update_line.cnt -= 1
   if update_line.cnt < 100:
   update_line.direction = 0

   return update_line.cnt<100


update_line.cnt = 0
update_line.direction = 0
update_line.background = None
update_line.cir = None

It's not a problem with your points lying inside a triangle. There is some 
other 
problem with the construction of the Delaunay triangulation. Sometimes the 
algorithm fails. This is one way that it fails.

[Matplotlib-users] TikZ/PGF backend

2010-02-16 Thread Nico Schlömer
Well, I spend some time now setting up a framework for exporting
matplotlib generated figures to TikZ code.
You can find it on

   http://github.com/nicki/matplotlib2tikz

The workflow is essentially that you generate your plot (dont show()),
and then call matplotlib2tikz("myfile.tikz"); using a proper back-end
has been considered not useful (b/c the information that the back-ends
can access purely contain geometric information, and not semantic info
such as "this color bar belongs to plot such-and-such").

What the script can do now, essentially, is line plots, images, color
bars. Adding more functionality should not be too difficult and is
basically just a matter of actually doing it. If you're interested in
helping out then I'd think now is the time as the script is a mere 350
lines long now; just poke me on github.

Cheers,
Nico

The last line of the "on_changed" method you posted is

And "set_colorbar" sets the colorbar attribute.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] agg_buffer_to_array.py

2010-02-16 Thread Michiel de Hoon
Hi David,

The Mac OS X backend does not use Agg, so I am not surprised that this script 
won't work with Mac OS X backend. The script probably also won't work with 
other non-Agg backends such as GtkCairo.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] identification of color bars

2010-02-16 Thread Nico Schlömer
Works pretty well.
I've now implemented something like

== *snip* ==
def find_associated_colorbar( obj ):
  for child in obj.get_children():
  try:
  cbar = child.colorbar
  except AttributeError:
  continue
  if not cbar == None: # really necessary?
  # if fetch was successful, cbar contains
  # ( reference to colorbar, reference to axis
containing colorbar )
  return cbar[0]
  return None
== *snip* ==

How did you find out about the colormap attribute? Was that by taking
a good guess in looking at the source code, or are the public
attributes of a class documented?

Cheers,
Nico

Re: [Matplotlib-users] DateFormatter + Latex issue

 Thanks Ernest, I had no idea that the DateFormatter was going to be treated
as latex as well.

However, escaping the \ with another \ did not worked.
I tried:

majorF = DateFormatter("\\n \\n %b")

How should I escape the \n ?

set_colorbar sets colorbar attribute. So I guess you can just check if
Mappable.colorbar is None or not.
Mappable.colorbar, when set, should be a tuple whose first item is an
image for colorbar and the second item is an colorbar axes.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] identification of color bars

Alright, so I dug the sources a bit and found the snippet

== *snip* ==
cb = cbar.Colorbar(cax, mappable, **kw)

def on_changed(m):
#print 'calling on changed', m.get_cmap().name
cb.set_cmap(m.get_cmap())
cb.set_clim(m.get_clim())
cb.update_bruteforce(m)

self.cbid = mappable.callbacksSM.connect('changed', on_changed)
mappable.set_colorbar(cb, cax)
== *snap* ==

I guess what happens is that a Colorbar is created, and a callback
function registered which adapts this very color bar whenever there is
a change in color maps/limits.
Well. -- I reckon that means that at the moment there's no way to tell
if a ScalarMappable has a color bar associated or not. :/ -- At least
I don't see how it would be possible to dig up on_changed( ) from the

I attached a script that allows to input a number via "raw_input" (after the 
first figure appeared) and than opens up a second figure. I hope the goes
