Re: [Matplotlib-users] Matplotlib differences MacOSXAgg and others
It is not clear to me that 4202 would fix it, and I think 4202 has a
basic problem of its own.
John, if you haven't already done so, please escalate this to a github
issue.

The gist is that a dotted line ('o:') works correctly
on my system (Linux Slackware/matplotlib 1.3.1 and 1.4.3), on C.C.Yang's
Linux Mint, but not on his MacOSX (on which the _circle symbols_ are
also
dotted).
It does work if he defines TkAgg or GtkAgg (even though he does not have
Gtk installed on his Mac)
Any suggestions to solve this?
Is there a problem in the MacOSXAgg backend?

[Matplotlib-users] Matplotlib 1.4.3 Agg problem
Hello all.
I had MatPlotLib 1.3.1 installed, and decided to upgrade to 1.4.3. I compiled
the
.tar.gz package, which went without a hitch (except for a number of warnings
from gcc). Installation also completed without problems.
But, on running the same simple plot I was working on, no plot was output:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
def test_plot():
x = range(11)
y = [x0**2 for x0 in x]
plt.plot(x, y, 'o:', fillstyle='none', label = 1, ms = 10)
plt.legend()
plt.show()
def main(args):
test_plot()
return 0
if __name__ == '__main__':
import sys
sys.exit(main(sys.argv))
which was somewhat annoying, as I was trying to help out someone on
Stackoverflow. Only after experimenting somewhat, I found that
setting the Agg to GtkAgg, the plot started working again:
import matplotlib
matplotlib.use('GtkAgg')
Is this normal? I'm not actually using gtk in this project.
TkAgg also works.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Matplotlib differences MacOSXAgg and others
We have been recently fixing a bunch of issues in the macosx backend (which
is default on Macs). Having the circle be dotted sounds exactly like the
sort of problem that would be caused by some of the bugs we are addressing.
I think we have some of the fixes committed to the master branch, so if you
could build and install from git, you can see if the problem is fixed yet
or not.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Matplotlib 1.4.3 Agg problem
If your backend is set to Agg, then no interactive window will appear upon
call to show(). Agg is intended for headless servers. What might be
happening is that somewhere, you have Agg set as the default backend.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Matplotlib 1.4.3 Agg problem
The Agg backend is a non-gui backend, it just saves to file. The `TkAgg`
and `GtkAgg` are gui backends (which are more of front ends, but I digress)
which show the output of Agg in a gui window (and provide a layer for
handling user interaction).
I suspect that how ever your 1.3.1 was installed the system level
matplotlibrc file was modified to set the default backend to be one of the
GUI backends.
See http://matplotlib.org/users/customizing.html#the-matplotlibrc-file You
want to set the 'backend' parameter.
