HI folks,
anybody know how to save a canvas (MplWidget) to a png or tif file.
Seems
when I try to save the figure,
whichCanvas.canvas.ax.plot(xSlice, ySlice, 'bo', linewidth=1.5,
linestyle='-')
savefig does not work for this type of object. Is there another method I
should use that I
missed?
thanks
dave

from PyQt4 import QtGui
- Ignored:
from matplotlib.backends.backend_qt4agg \
import FigureCanvasQTAgg as FigureCanvas
from matplotlib.figure import Figure
class MplCanvas(FigureCanvas):
def __init__(self):
self.fig = Figure()
self.ax = self.fig.add_subplot(111)
FigureCanvas.__init__(self, self.fig)
FigureCanvas.setSizePolicy(self,
QtGui.QSizePolicy.Expanding,
QtGui.QSizePolicy.Expanding)
FigureCanvas.updateGeometry(self)
class MplWidget(QtGui.QWidget):
def __init__(self, parent = None):
QtGui.QWidget.__init__(self, parent)
self.canvas = MplCanvas()
self.vbl = QtGui.QVBoxLayout()
self.vbl.addWidget(self.canvas)
self.setLayout(self.vbl)

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.

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.
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
