It is strongly discouraged to try to build matplotlib from source on windows. 
Setting up your windows environment to build the source is difficult and time 
consuming. Please use the windows installers at the download site instead.

[Matplotlib-users] axis elements and zorder

2006-09-02 Thread Michael Fitzgerald


Hi all,

I have a question about zorder and Axis elements.  I read in the  
thread titled "zorder not working for grid lines??" that since grid  
lines are Axis elements, they don't respect the zorder.  It's  
possible to set grid lines below other plot elements with  
Axis.set_axisbelow().  However, I have a case where I want grid lines  
to be below my plot elements, but I want the ticks to be above them  
(test code attached).  As it stands, they can be either both below or  
both above.


Has anyone found a way around this limitation?  Is having zorder  
apply to Axis elements on the wishlist?


Thanks for any info,
Mike

from pylab import *

# setup a simple plot
rcParams['xtick.major.size'] = 12
rcParams['ytick.major.size'] = 12
x = arange(5)
plot(x,x,'g',zorder=4)
ax = gca()

# add a rectangle that extends to the right edge
ax.add_patch(matplotlib.patches.Rectangle((1.75,1.75), 5, 1.5, fill=True, zorder=2))

# put grid lines behind rectangle
ax.grid(True)
gridlines = ax.get_xgridlines()+ax.get_ygridlines()
setp(gridlines, 'zorder', 1)

# put tick lines above rectangle
ticklines = ax.get_lines()+ax.get_xticklines()+ax.get_yticklines()
setp(ticklines, 'zorder', 3)

show()
