My fear is that all these native implementations will become very hard to maintain. What happens when Qt 4.2 comes out and the person who did the original Qt impl is long gone? (this is just for arguments sake of course). Native tools seem better left to developers creating their own apps. The t

Hey, glad it might actually be of use to other people. I know I've been awful about finishing things, as anything that doesn't directly relate to my thesis has fallen to wayside as of late. When I was investigating saving it as an XML format, I remember coming across a problem. If I remembe

Dear Abraham, I'm sorry it's taken so long to get back to you. I didn't see any other responses on the list, but I think this is a super idea (although I have yet to look at the code). In particular I like your idea to save to your XML format. Then we could plot to an XML file, and replot (later)

Darren -Although I agree with your on some level, the advantage of the current toolbar is that it is easy to incorporate in a GUI, where the user can define his own drop down menu. So I vote for a backend native slider, but keep the button on the toolbar. I have been thinking about an easier way t

[matplotlib-devel] subplots adjust

2006-08-07 Thread Darren Dale
I am writing to ask about the subplots adjust widget. I think the gui would be better implimented by each backend using the native widgets rather than by the existing set of backend-neutral sliders, which are somewhat unbecoming. The proposed backend-specific widgets could call the generic subpl
