[Matplotlib-users] Global font size

2008-06-19 Thread Bill Baxter
Matplot folks, Is there a way to increase all font sizes globally across the board? I played around with some RC parameters but they don't seem to have any effect. I found that I could more or less achieve the desired result by the following steps: 1) plot to something like subplot(6,6,1). That

I'm not sure what you're after exactly, but your design needs may be solved by calling pylab.ion(True). If not the ezplot library that I wrote may do it for you. http://www.python.org/pypi/ezplot/0.1.0a3 --bb On 6/13/07, signal seeker [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi All, I am very new to

[Matplotlib-users] Drawing lots of lines or polygons

2007-05-17 Thread Bill Baxter
I frequently find myself wanting to draw a bunch of disconnected line segments or polygons. Is there anything in matplotlib to facilitate that? I usually just end up writing a loop. Like: for s,e in izip(starts,ends): plot([s[0],e[0]], [s[1],e[1]], 'b-') Or if the starts and ends are

Did you guys make a conscious decision to have the matplotlib list send replies only to the sender of the message rather than the list? This seems to be the default at SourceForge, so it's conceivable you just haven't bothered to change it. I've been on at least 10 different mailing lists in the

[Matplotlib-users] matshow?

2007-03-16 Thread Bill Baxter
Why does pylab.matshow() create a new figure by default when no other standard pylab function I know of does that? It seems very inconsistent for no particular gain, since as always figure();matshow(m) will achieve that result if that is what is desired. --bb
