Re: [Matplotlib-users] how to prevent colorbar from taking space from axes

If you have matplotlib v1.3 (maybe 1.2, I can't remember), you can pass a list of axes to the "ax" argument of colorbar, and it should steal space equally from all the specified axes. I am also particularly fond of using the mpl_toolkit axis_grid1, which provides you a nice way to preallocate spac

[Matplotlib-users] how to prevent colorbar from taking space from axes

Hi, I'm trying to make a plot with four panes (2x2). The two on top are images, created with pcolormesh, while the ones on the bottom are line plots. I'd like to the axes to line up -- which they do -- but when I add a colorbar to the top right, it steals space from the image plot. I only need

Re: [Matplotlib-users] subplot axis ticks

Yes, this works fine: import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt eels= np.random.rand(12) averspe = np.random.rand(12) fig,azal = plt.subplots(1,1) azal.locator_params(nbins=10) azal.plot(eels, averspe, label='data') Cheers, Jody PS, easiest is to include self-contained examples. i.e.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Is it planned to add copy/paste curves possibility in matplotlib ?

Plans? No. This is the first I have ever heard of such a feature. You could always add a feature request for it (this is a community-developed tool). It might even fold in nicely with the MEP22 work going on to refactor our interactivity and make it easier to add tools. Keep in mind that Matplotli

Re: [Matplotlib-users] subplot axis ticks

You need to do the azal.locator_params() call *after* you create azal. You would get errors otherwise. Ben Root On Thu, Dec 11, 2014 at 11:18 AM, Gabriele Brambilla < gb.gabrielebrambi...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Doing > > azal.locator_params(nbins=4) > azal = rif.add_subplot(111) > azal.plot(eels*(

[Matplotlib-users] Is it planned to add copy/paste curves possibility in matplotlib ?

Dear all, We're, at our lab, trying to (slowly) make the transition from a famous (but expansive) numerical software to Python. The most recurring remark made against the use of Python/Matplotlib instead of this famous software is the fact that one cannot male simple click/copy/paste of a curve f

I wonder if setting the locator params prior to plotting would fix that? Might be one of those rare situations where the order of commands matter in matplotlib. Ben Root On Thu, Dec 11, 2014 at 10:50 AM, Gabriele Brambilla < gb.gabrielebrambi...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi, > > I already saw that s

Re: [Matplotlib-users] line segments in a scatter plot

Nils, Perhaps the rectangle selector might be of use? It defaults to a draw mode of 'box', but you can set it to line so that it looks like a ruler widget. http://matplotlib.org/api/widgets_api.html#matplotlib.widgets.RectangleSelector I can imagine that you could set up a selector callback that

[Matplotlib-users] line segments in a scatter plot

Hi all, how can I create line segments between consecutive selected points of a scatter plot in an interactive manner ? It should be possible to create several unclosed polygonal lines. Each polygonal line might have a different color. A small example is appreciated. Thanks in advance. -- V
