So please check > your matplotlib version in your sage-4.8.alpha5 It's not 11915. This was caused by a bad ticket merged in sage-4.8.alpha3. I'm glad I found this issue, and am reporting it, irregardless of that README quote. I would hate for this to have been released. -- William > > Jeroen. > > -- > To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com > To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to > sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel > URL: http://www.sagemath.org -- William Stein Professor of Mathematics University of Washington http://wstein.org -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org

[sage-devel] plotting in sage-4.8.alpha5 is serious fubar'd
Hi, I've been trying to use sage-4.8.alpha5 for daily work during the last few days. I don't know what was done to plotting in sage-4.8.alpha5, but it is seriously messed up.Basically, something is broken so that figsize doesn't work at all. Often I have to set an aspect ratio of 1000 just to see anything, etc. Anybody have a clue what this is about? This is a BLOCKER for release, since it will cause massive trouble to a lot of users. Here's a simple example, in which both outputs looks fine in sage-4.7.2: g = Graphics(); g += line([(0, 120.93), (1, 120.92)]) g.show() g.show(figsize=[8,4]) To see this on a remote install, just use "save('a.png')" in place of show. Even though the first show is broken, perhaps due to something being set by default, the "g.show(figsize=[8,4])" is supposed to produce an "8 inch by 4 inch figure", but instead it makes something that is 0 inches tall. What's going on? What broke stuff? This is now blocker trac #12213. William P.S. And FUBAR is literally the right acronym to describe this. -- William Stein Professor of Mathematics University of Washington http://wstein.org -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org <>
