Re: [Matplotlib-users] New contourf() drawing polygon boundaries for some reason?

I switched back to using the macosx backend, and it turns out that the thin black lines surrounding the polygons (including crossing the filled contour regions from one closed contour to another) only get displayed in the GUI. PDF and PNG output look fine. Zane On Fri, Jun 12, 2009 at 2:27 PM, Z

Re: [Matplotlib-users] New contourf() drawing polygon boundaries for some reason?

If I set path.simplify: False, the shape of the gaps between the filled polygons does change. Instead of being irregular, it becomes an infinitessimally thin gap of uniform width, allowing the (in this case white) background to show through. In both of these cases (path.simplify: True|False), the

Hello, First let me say thank you for all of the help it is very appreciated. Your suggestion to use the command import "import mpl_toolkits.basemap" has worked, but now a new problem has popped up. Does the Netcdf file need to be in the same directory as the script I am running to retrieve th

Re: [Matplotlib-users] New contourf() drawing polygon boundaries for some reason?

Shot in the dark here, but what if you set the rcParam "path.simplify" to False? There have been recent changes to that code. Also, since the Agg backend doesn't have an associated GUI, you need to use the savefig() command and provide a filename, rather than using show(). Cheers, Mike Zane S

Um, yeah. So my response got bounced because of the attachment. Take 2: For some reason my script bombed when I switched to the Agg backend, trying to display to the screen (it said Figure has no method show()) So I output the plot as both a PDF and a PNG (still having backend: agg in my rcfile

So you see this behavior if you switch to the Agg backend? That's the backend used to generate the images in the gallery. If there's a difference there, that would seem to suggest some tweaking of the macosx backend (which is still relatively new) is in order. Mike Zane Selvans wrote: > I ju

Hi, long time ago there was a discussion on reducing the duplications of functions / symbols between Numpy and Matplotlib. I think from this resulted the pylab module now having many fewer entries: >>> import matplotlib >>> matplotlib.__version__ '0.98.5.2' >>> import pylab >>> len(pylab.__dict__)
