matplotlib 1.3.1 works quite well with python 2.7.

I never recommend pip to Windows users (at least not until everything is in
wheels).

The last few times I had no problem `easy_install`ing the matplotlib exe
installer in a virtualenv, nor any of the other exe installers.

(pip is for Linux users, I never found anything better than easy_install on
Windows.)

Hello dydy,

If you've never done programing in python I would recommend a book
"dive into python" any version will do but the latest one is 3 I
think. Asking this questions in tut...@py... will probably
get you even further since they mainly deal with general python
learning.

Whatever you can use through command prompt you can use in python if
you use import subprocess. Subprocess.call("command") calls whatever
command you want over the command line. If you can call IDL to run
files over command line this can be an option. If not you're going to
have to use a wrapper tool like SWIG is foc c/c++ or another module to
connect to IDL. A useful module here will usually be os as well.

As for installations of modules under windows platforms, that's always
tricky, I recommend using a virtualenv with pip, because then
generally installing a module boils down to using "pip install". But
even in virtualenv on windows I've had issues with installing i.e.
matplotlib and found it impossible and I've had to install it
system-wide by using one of the unofficial binary installers from:
http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/ and from then I have to
start start each virtualenv with the option --system-site-packages
which kind of defeats the purpose of a virtualenv, but such is the
nature of developing on win's....
(I've read that you can activate local modules by hand, but I've not
been able to reproduce it)


I know this is a bunch of new info, I suggest you read up on it, best of luck,
Dino

Hey, even I had similar issue.
Later I learnt python2.7 could support matplotlib version1.0.1 only.

So if you want to upgrade your matplotlib, you first need to upgrade your
python.

Hello all,

I interested in python programming that is why I join in this forum.
I want to know how to install new module in my python program?. I use python
under windows OS.
Actually, I interest with PyNio but I don't know how to install it.
Another question is how to make other language, for example, IDL, can be
read in python?
Thank you....

Dydy

Adding a caption to a plot inserted with the `plot` directive from mpl's
sphinxextensions does not work for me, even though the [documentation][1]
says it should be possible.

The relevant ReST snippet:
```
.. plot:: /home/oliver/git/lcp2/code/python/plot_scripts/tangent_circles.py
    :align: center
    :alt: 'Schematic drawing of the two solution methods'

    Schematic drawing showing the two possible solution methods discussed.

I don't see a reference in the documentation saying it's a feature that was
added in a newer version of mpl.

What am I doing wrong?


[1]:
http://matplotlib.org/devel/documenting_mpl.html#module-matplotlib.sphinxext.plot_directive

I installed using version 1.3.1 windows binary
"matplotlib-1.3.1.win32-py2.7.exe" from mathplotlib download. Installation
went fine, but when using the package, it says "dateutil" and "pyparsing"
are missing, which are supposed to be bundled according to the installation
instruction. Is this a bug or expected behavior from now on? I did not have
this issue for earlier versions of matplotlib.
My base python is 2.7.8.

If anyone is having the issue, either download the binaries from pythonlibs
mentioned above, or
install from the sources, which I did as follows:
(1) Install setuptools if you don't have it. 
    Download source from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools;
    Unpack and run 'ez_setup.py install'; or 'python ez_setup.py install'
    This will install setuptools.
    
(2) Install any other package by downloading the source, unpacking, and 
    running 'setup.py install'
    e.g., "dateutil" has been installed this way.
    https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-dateutil, same for pyparsing

It's better to use the static libraries for libpng, zlib, and freetype 
(unless you have reasons not to). Rename the .lib files as in the build 
script:

<https://github.com/jbmohler/matplotlib-winbuild/blob/master/build_dep.cmd#L236>
<https://github.com/jbmohler/matplotlib-winbuild/blob/master/build_dep.cmd#L214>

I am still trying to build matplotlib on windows. The instructions on 1717
were very helpful, I managed to build the
prerequisites manually based on the instructions in the dep_build.cmd that
came from matplotlib-winbuild project.

But when I try to run it I get this error message:

>>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
Traceback (most recent call last):

I am guessing it doesn't like the filename of the png16.dll file, but how
do I know what filename it is looking for?
I noticed I had to rename a bunch of .lib files in order to build
matplotlib from source, but that was OK since the error message
said what file it was looking for. How do I determine the correct filename
to use from here?

Hello,

I try to threshold an image manually by using a slider widget to set the 
threshold value (I don’t binarize my image, but mask it). I superimpose my 
thresholded image to the original according to a colormap.

I cannot figure out why if I put the initial threshold to the max value of my 
original image, my thresolded one is monochrome while with another initial 
value, it follows the colormap.

Here is my code (change `f0 = gray_data.max()` to `f0 = gray_data.max() / 2` 
to see the difference):

'''
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from matplotlib.widgets import Slider

# Generate some data...
gray_data = np.arange(10000).reshape(100, 100)

fig, ax = plt.subplots()
fig.subplots_adjust(bottom=0.25)
ax.matshow(gray_data, cmap=plt.cm.gray)

axcolor = 'lightgoldenrodyellow'
axthresh = fig.add_axes([0.25, 0.1, 0.65, 0.03], axisbg=axcolor)

f0 = gray_data.max()
sthresh = Slider(axthresh, 'threshold', gray_data.min(), gray_data.max(), 
valinit=f0)

mask = gray_data < f0
masked = np.ma.array(gray_data, mask=mask)
masked_ax = ax.imshow(masked, alpha=0.5)

def update(val):
    threshold = sthresh.val
    mask = gray_data < threshold
    masked.mask = mask
    masked_ax.set_data(masked)
    fig.canvas.draw_idle()
sthresh.on_changed(update)

plt.show()
'''

Thank you for your help.

You might find that plt.pause(1) is helpful.
See pylab_examples/animation_demo.py.

Also, it sounds like running via ipython, if possible, would make things 
easier for you; it takes care of all sorts of difficulties with 
interactivity.  And it's wonderfully helpful in other ways as well.

That sounds overly complex and roundabout.  I'm sure that one or more of 
the suggestions above can lead to a simple solution.

Thanks Ben for the tip on edgecolor. I’ve got what I wanted now and since it took some digging and tinkering I figured I’d write it up and share the solution with anyone who may want it:

https://dawes.wordpress.com/2014/06/27/publication-ready-3d-figures-from-matplotlib/

and full test-case script here:

https://github.com/DawesLab/Qfunction/blob/master/TestQfunc.py

This creates two surface plots with contours below them, labels placed tight to the axes, and some other bits that make it work well for publishing in a two-column journal (black & white, color online).

I’m happy to format and post this to the official documentation if that would be helpful.

Best,
Andy

actually, that is technically incorrect. That only works for monotonically
increasing series, but not monotonically decreasing series.

diffs = np.diff(lon)
if np.all(diffs <= 0):
    return True
if np.all(diffs >= 0):
    return True
return False

provided that len(lon) >= 2, obviously (and it doesn't work right for 2 or
more dimensions).

Yes.  Consider:

py> all(lon[:-1] <= lon[1:])

If True, then lon is monotonically increasing.  Otherwise it's not.

Description:

lon[:-1] is a slice that takes every element of lon except the last one.
lon[1:] is a slice that takes every element of lon except the first one.
The comparison operator will create a bool numpy array whose elements
will be True for each element "i" if the i'th element is less than or
equal to the i+1'th element.  Applying the "all" (or numpy.all)
functions to this bool array will return True if every element is true
and False otherwise.

Faster, easier, and less error-prone than printing out the array and
checking it yourself.  Of course you could do something more explicit:

py> monotonic = True
py> for i in range(len(lon)-1):
py>     if lon[i] > lon[i+1]:
py>         monotonic = False
py>         break

numpy slicing (subtract prior from next element check that 'all' the 
results are >=0):

In [1]: import numpy

In [2]: x=numpy.array([1,2,3,4,5])

In [3]: (x[1:]-x[:-1])>=0
Out[3]: array([ True,  True,  True,  True], dtype=bool)

In [4]: numpy.all((x[1:]-x[:-1])>=0)
Out[4]: True

In [5]: x=numpy.array([1,3,2,5,4])

In [6]: numpy.all((x[1:]-x[:-1])>=0)
Out[6]: False

I have a script that fetchs data from a database and plot using 
something similar to

fig, (ax1, ax3) = plt.subplots(2, 1, sharex=False, sharey=False, num=fignum)
ax1.errorbar(...)
title(...)
ax2 = ax1.twiny()
ax4 = ax2.twiny()
...
plt.legent()
plt.draw()

Then, I call this script with plt.ion() and I use plt.show(block=True); 
so the plot stays opened.

Now, I want to rerun the script every second to get the updated data 
from the database. Is it posible to have the plot no blocking the script 
and being refresh?

I try to use block=False but this makes that the plot is not shown. I 
want to change my original script as little as possible. One posible 
idea I have is to pickle the plot (in the original script); and use 
another script that opens the pickled file every second.

TIA

Hi all,

how can I resolve the problem described at

http://community.coreldraw.com/forums/p/31103/146512.aspx

Nils

Oh my, it WAS the meshgrid! Thank you so much! 
When reading the coordinates like:
lat = FB.variables['lat'][:,:]
lon = FB.variables['lon'][:,:]

And plotting (without meshgrid!):
m.pcolormesh(lon, lat, masked_fb, latlon=True)

it works! Now I feel stupid.
And I think the longitudes and latitudes are not monotonic, but I don't know
the way to check this, other than checking the array like lon[:] in
terminal. Is there a better way?

And thank you again!
Bill Wang

If you supply the code you did to get where you got, I have a rough idea
how to get what you need. Essentially, you need to set the edgecolor of the

don't know if this would make a difference, but meshgrid here is completely
unnecessary given that the netcdf file has the lats and lons in 2
dimensions anyway.

Given that this is a polar projection, I wouldn't be surprised if there is
something wonky there. Are the longitudes and latitudes monotonic?

Hi all! I'm trying to plot some sea ice freeboard data (netCDF, Gridded total
freeboard) on the Antarctic sea, but the data that should plot nicely around
Antarctica lies at the bottom of my image. NetCDF and matplotlib are fairly
new to me so I'm not quite sure, where the error could be and I feel like
I've search and tried everything there is. 
<http://matplotlib.1069221.n5.nabble.com/file/n43580/bad_fb.png> 

from scipy.io.netcdf import netcdf_file as Dataset
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

FB = Dataset('./datasets/fb-0217-0320.nc', 'r')
f = FB.variables['f'][:,:]
lat = FB.variables['lat'][:,0]
lon = FB.variables['lon'][0,:]
masked_fb = np.ma.masked_where(np.isnan(f), f)
mtx_lon, mtx_lat = np.meshgrid(lon, lat)
m = Basemap(projection='spstere',boundinglat=-50, lon_0=180.,
resolution='l')
m.bluemarble()

plt.figure()
m.pcolormesh(mtx_lon, mtx_lat, masked_fb, latlon=True)
plt.show()

And ncdump gives:
dimensions:
x = 79 ;
y = 83 ;
variables:
float lat(y, x) ;
    lat:standard_name = "latitude" ;
    lat:long_name = "latitude coordinate" ;
    lat:units = "degrees_north" ;
float lon(y, x) ;
    lon:standard_name = "longitude" ;
    lon:long_name = "longitude coordinate" ;
    lon:units = "degrees_east" ;
float f(y, x) ;
    f:long_name = "total_freeboard" ;
    f:units = "mm" ;
    f:coordinates = "lat lon" ;

Could there be something funny with the projection or handling the data?
(When using meshgrid, handling the coordinates like ['lat'][:,0] seems
necessary, otherwise it turns lats and lons like (6557,6557) and gives error
message for pcolormesh, since masked_fb is (83,79).)
