The same happens for e.g. plot(array([1,2,3])+1e5), i.e. if the values' changes are small compared to their magnitude. Without that, the tick numbers would read 11.0, 12.0, 13.0 in this example, which may not look very pretty.

AFAIK, the latex support for the SVG backend isn't fully working yet. For rcParams['text.usetex']=True you'll get an error. With rcParams['text.usetex']=False I get the same issue that you see (Sum symbol missing when I open the .svg in Inkscape).

Here, indeed, with usetex False, using r'' produces the \sum sign in the .svg but "n=1" and "100" are not alinged correctly (they both appear above \sum).

How can I use that to create lines with variable thickness? Ah sorry for the noise, I didn't read your message well. I somehow thought you ment an *integer* rather than a float. So, I'm not sure whether you want a single line that changes width and color or several lines that change. In the latter case you could of course just loop over your properties. Something like x = linspace(0,3,50) for w in [0,1,2,3,4,5]: plot(x, sin(x*w), lw=w, color=(w/5.0,0,(5-w)/5.0)); If you don't want that, then the example from Troels Kofoed Jacobsen will be a nice way to go.

If you have numpy/scipy installed via a package manager, check the versions. If they are not too old, try to just upgrade mpl and see if it works, otherwise install (1) numpy, (2) scipy, (3) mpl. Always remove/uninstall/backup the old installations first (to be on the safe side also everything in ~/.matplotlib, maybe back up your matplotlibrc file). Install to /usr/local/lib/python2.x/site-packages (instead of /usr/lib) with python setup.py install --prefix=/usr/local to avoid clashes with your package manager (I experienced such things). -- cheers, steve Random number generation is the art of producing pure gibberish as quickly as possible. - Take Surveys.

In the definition of the save() function: [...] if len(X.shape)==1: origShape = X.shape X.shape = len(X), 1 [...] This reshapes the 1D-array (len(a[i,:].shape) == 1) to a 2D-array of shape Nx1 and a loop over the first axis writes the rows (in this case one element per row) to file.
