Re: [Matplotlib-users] Drawing lots of lines or polygons

That does look like what I'm after. Two things are unclear to me from the docs you pointed to: 1) How do you actually add something to a plot with those? Are they automatically added to the current figure just by creating them? 2) How do patch/poly collections determine the edges? All I can see

[Matplotlib-users] Generating and saving figures without actually displaying them

Hello, I want to run a python program on a remote machine via ssh. It generates figures and saves them to files. I don't need/want to see the figures as they are being generated and saved. When I do this on the remote machine (which is running linux) I get a display error _tkinter.TclError: n

[Matplotlib-users] box chart

I am tracking and visualizing temperatures for the nodes of a computing cluster. I am already using matplotlib to render historical temperature data as a line plot, but I also want to be able to show averages over a time range. I want to represent this as a 2-D array of boxes shaded with a gradien

[Matplotlib-users] Warnings in Extensions.hxx

Hi, I can see lots of warnings like : ./CXX/Extensions.hxx:477: warning: right-hand operand of comma has no effect All of them are in Extensions.hxx. They look fully harmless but it could be could a good thing to get them fixed. If needed I could propose a patch. BTW : gcc version 4.1.3 200705

[Matplotlib-users] Climate Diagrams - two axes with different scale

Hi, I was trying to create a function to draw climate diagrams like this one . Basically is a two lines plot, monthly average temperature and monthly accumulated rainfall, drawn with same X axis but diferrent Y axes (rainfall is half scale of temperature, eg.

[Matplotlib-users] Setting zorder for twinx plots

Hi, We are trying to plot a climogram (where you have temperature on the left hand axis, and precipitation on the RHS). The data need to be properly scaled as well. We have used twinx() to get the two axes. However, the precipitation (plotted as bars) goes over the temperature line, when it should
