Re: [matplotlib-devel] plotting a series of 3D points and, picker=True and 3D

2008-01-29 Thread Neil Crighton
I think it would be a shame to lose the current matplotlib 3d plotting functionality, even if it's not ideal. I've found it very useful for plotting small sets of data, and much more straightforward to use than Mayavi or other vtk-based 3d plotting packages. Having said that, I'm not volunteering

Another big difference between matplotlib and chaco: matplotlib has online documentation, examples and tutorials. I couldn't find any documentation on Chaco when I was looking around for a python plotting program. If I had, who knows, maybe I'd be using Chaco now instead of matplotlib :) -

I did. But there's no manual, and the 'under construction' placeholders in the 'how do I?' and tutorial didn't give a great first impression. I see now there's a link to some example code, but it's a lot more intimidating than the matplotlib introductory stuff. > > Did you find http://code.enthou

[matplotlib-devel] Change in linestyle='steps' between 0.91 and 0.98

2008-08-28 Thread Neil Crighton
linestyle='steps' has changed behaviour between 0.91.2 and 0.98.3. The 'step' between two points used to move horizontally and then vertically from the left point neighbouring right point, now it moves vertically then horizontally. Was this change intentional? I hope not, because I've just spent t

Re: [matplotlib-devel] Change in linestyle='steps' between 0.91 and 0.98

2008-08-28 Thread Neil Crighton
Now I see there are more options in 0.98 - 'steps-pre', 'steps-post', 'steps-mid'. The default should be steps-post for backwards compatibility. In 0.98.3 the default is steps-pre. And sorry for the testy tone of the previous email :) Neil 2008/8/28 N

[matplotlib-devel] Event handling example not working

2008-10-27 Thread Neil Crighton
I noticed on the event handling doc page: matplotlib-devel@lists.sourceforge.net that the draggable rectangle example doesn't work in version 0.98.3. The rectangle class no longer seems to have the xy property. If you replace the current on_press() method in the example with the code below it se

[matplotlib-devel] Patch adding minor ticks that autoscale

2009-05-10 Thread Neil Crighton
Hello, It has always bugged me that it's not easy to display minor ticks in matplotlib, and there is no easy way to make minor ticks autoscale the same way major ticks do. I just added a patch to tracker that (I hope!) fixes these two problems. https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=
