[Matplotlib-users] How to turn off autoscaling in Axes3D

2007-01-18 Thread Matthew Koichi Grimes
Autoscaling is usually cool, but for my particular application I'd like to turn it off, so that my successive surface plots are all shown in the same scale. How can I turn off autoscaling in Axes3D? My current workaround is to manually set the axis limits just before each draw(), but this is ki

[Matplotlib-users] Axes3D.hold() buggy? Or am I supposed to use something else?

2007-01-18 Thread Matthew Koichi Grimes
I posted a question earlier about how to repeatedly plot (i.e. animate) a changing surface without having multiple surfaces just accumulate in the plot. Eric Firing suggested using Axes3DI.hold(False), but this didn't work; is that a bug, or is that expected? If it's a bug, how can I file it?

[Matplotlib-users] basemap: avoid thin line at end/beginning of data on orthographic projections?

2007-01-18 Thread Simon Kammerer
Hello list! Is there a way to avoid the thin line at the end/beginning of data when using an orthographic projection? With other projections or when no pole is visible, the line can be hidden by shifting the data grid (as done in the example), but if you have to have one of the poles visible, I do

[Matplotlib-users] Changing the font for the legend

2007-01-18 Thread Derek Hohls
I would like to know how to change the font for the legend. The usual method of: yticklabels = getp(gca(), 'yticklabels') setp(yticklabels, color='black', fontsize=6) Does not seem to work for legend. And when I try: legend( ... prop=FontProperties('smaller') ) as per the webpage, I

[Matplotlib-users] Plotting the legend "above" the gridlines

2007-01-18 Thread Derek Hohls
The command: ax = lab.subplot(111, axisbelow='True') ensures that the gridlines appear below the bars on a plot; how can the same be done for the legend (ie the grid below the legend and not running through it)? Thanks Derek -- This message is subject to the CSIR's copyright, terms and con
