Hi, I'm a new user and I installed matplotlib 0.90.1 on Mac 10.4.9. I'm using the WxAgg backend, which I installed using MacPorts. I haven't had a problem so far except when I try to change font properties like family, fontname, and weight. For example, the following doesn't work:

Thanks Michael! I installed fondu and converted my Helvetica.dfont to .ttf and put them in /Users/ybendana/Library/Fonts. However, the fontManager was still picking up the /System/Library/Fonts/Helvetica.dfont. As a workaround, I edited font_manager.py line 209 in findSystemFonts() to build the

[Matplotlib-users] dual y scales

I need to make some dual y-scale plots: on time series plotted against the left axis, with a second plotted again the right axis (which has its own scale). I think Matplotlib did not used to provide dual scale plotting: is it now available? Thank you, Alan Isaac
