Re: [Matplotlib-users] figure save problem

2010-03-12 Thread Andre Walker-Loud
Hi All,

An update:

I have likely figured out the problem.  When I did a fresh install of  
Python-2.6 on my mac, I simply used

./configure

and reading more about installing on the mac, I believe I should have  
used

./configure --enable-framework

to support all the GUI stuff.  Well, I tried this, but got the warning,

Failed to find the necessary bits to build these modules:
_bsddb gdbm   linuxaudiodev
ossaudiodevreadline   spwd
sunaudiodev


so, instead of trying to track down the solution to this problem (I am  
still new at learning how to properly install software from binaries)  
I just grabbed the latest python-2.6 .dmg file for mac, and installed  
with that.

Now, everything seems to work fine.   :)


Cheers,

Andre

 Hi All,

 I am having a problem saving figures produced with matplotlib.  Right
 now, I am running a freshly built

 matplotlib-0.99.1.2 (unzipped, the directory reads 0.99.1.1?) built  
 on
 python-2.6
 numpy-1.3.0
 scipy-0.7.1
 ipython-0.10


 All on an OSX 10.5 intel.

 When I try to save a figure, in the Save the figure dialogue box,
 the Save As: window does not recognize any keyboard entries.  If I
 copy and paste, that works (at first).  But I remembered reading  
 about
 this problem people were having with Snow Leopard.

 Originally, copy/pasting worked to workaround this problem, but I
 find that after trying a few other things, I can no longer even paste
 anything into the Save As: Box.  Further, when I click the Save  
 or
 Cancel buttons, they flash like normal, however the dialogue box
 does not go away, the file is not saved, and I can't escape!
 Ahh!  I can still navigate through my folders with the mouse in
 the dialogue box, but clearly something is not right.


 Last week, I had Python 2.5, matplotlib 0.98.6 and everything worked
 just fine.

 I have the problem whether running through python or ipython.asdfasdf


 Any ideas how to fix this?


 Thanks,

 Andre
