 That would be very nice, 

You can quite easily write a function that produces metapost
code. Featpost is the best 3d-lib for that, afaik.

The good thing is that you get plot that work in both latex and
pdflatex and integrates completely with latex text.

Scipy - Latex Annotations in plots

2005-07-06 Thread fortuneteller
Hello, 

I'm quite new to python and Scipy.
Anyway I want to use it to plot graphs.
Does anybody know if there is the possibility to use Latex in SciPy's
plotting functions like gplt?

Thanks for your help, 

Matthias

I don't believe so. matplotlib, however, does have this functionality in 
recent releases.

Perhaps gnuplot.py (http://gnuplot-py.sourceforge.net/) will work for
you? It is a thin wrapper around Gnuplot, which is very good at
producing ps format images, and is capable of producing 3 dimensional
graphs.

There's PyX.

Yes, yes it would.
