[Matplotlib-users] Complex Plot

2007-01-03 Thread Benoit Donnet
Hi all, First of all, best wishes for the brand new year! I hope that 2007 will be a great year for all of you. Attached to this mail, there is an image representing a 'complex plot'. this is complex because it contains a lot of information (plot + table below the plot). I think the

[Matplotlib-users] How can I set the backgroundcolor of text with set_backgroundcolor ?

2007-01-03 Thread Mark Bakker
Hello - I want to set the backgroundcolor of text with the set_backgroundcolor function. Does that actually work? I saw a more complicated way to do it by defining a bbox, but this would be much easier (if I got it to work). Here's my example that doesn't work. Thanks for any suggestions, Mark

Thanks John. This works great. I think, however, that set_backgroundcolor would be useful. It should be easy to fix. If nobody speaks up, I will take a crack at it, Mark On 1/3/07, John Hunter [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Mark == Mark Bakker [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Mark Hello - I want to

Thanks for writing the convenience function John ! I think there is a large group (like the students in my class) who use matplotlib as a simple tool to make beautiful graphs. To compete with matlab we need to keep simple tasks simple. I personally think that this convenience function is a good

[Matplotlib-users] Using 'scaled' for aspect ratio

2007-01-03 Thread Mark Bakker
The enhanced way of handling aspect ratios that Eric implemented works great. There is, however, one change from the old implementation that I don't like. In the old implementation, when setting axis('scaled') it also turned autoscale off. This makes sense (and I used it a lot). It means that
