It's not clear to me why you should be hitting mathtext at all, since
the wxcursor_demo.py does not use it, as far as I can tell.  Michael,
would any of your earlier work caused him to get into mathtext
inapproriately?  You may need to revert a little farther, William, eg
to r3608 while we get this sorted out.

Did you report that error earlier?  Sorry I missed it.

It turns out that "float('inf')" is not portable to Windows.  See here: 
http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0754/

I just committed a possible fix using numpy.inf instead.  Please update

   lib/matplotlib/mathtext.py

and let me know if this works (again, sorry I don't have Windows to test 
on here.)

In the meantime, I'll try to track down why the build is broken on trunk 
for you.

Cheers,
Mike

If I revert back to 3645, it builds and I can install it--but then I run
into
the original error I was having where I couldn't run the demos:

Thanks!  I think that:
"found, but unknown version" would be a bit better.  So, it means that it
found libpng and freetype.  It says that it didn't vind wx-python--but is
that only relevant for versions of wxpython below 2.8  I am running
C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\wx-2.8-msw-unicode, and there is no wx-config
directory associated with it.

Also, is there a reason why the compilation is being done with the cygwin
flag?

Thanks,
William

These _imp__ things have something to do with how mingw32 links with 
libraries.  I'm afraid I'm getting a little out of my element there.  If 
you want to rule out any unintentional consequences of my very recent 
setup.py changes (which were primarily to give more information, rather 
than change how things work), you can revert SVN a bit "svn -r 3645" and 
see if things are any different.  Please let me know how that goes 
either way.

No.  The line:

   freetype2: unknown (no pkg-config)

indicates that the freetype2 headers were found, but it couldn't 
determine the version through pkg-config.  If it wasn't able to find it, 
it would hav said "freetype2: no".  On second glance, I admit that 
message might be confusing.  Do you think "found, but unknown version" 
would be better?

I'll defer on that question to someone with more matplotlib + Windows 
experience.

But, I noticed in the beginning:

============================================================================
BUILDING MATPLOTLIB
            matplotlib: 0.90.1 (r3634)
                python: 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Apr 18 2007, 08:51:08) [MSC
                        v.1310 32 bit (Intel)]
              platform: win32
       Windows version: (5, 1, 2600, 2, 'Service Pack 2')

REQUIRED DEPENDENCIES
Setting mingw32 as default compiler for nt.
                 numpy: 1.0.4.dev3937
             freetype2: unknown (no pkg-config)

OPTIONAL DEPENDENCIES
                  Gtk+: no
                        * Building for Gtk+ requires pygtk; you must be able
                        * to "import gtk" in your build/install environment
               Tkinter: Tkinter: 50704, Tk: 8.4, Tcl: 8.4
              wxPython: no
                        *  WXAgg's accelerator requires `wx-config'.  The
                        * `wx-config' executable could not be located in any
                        * directory of the PATH environment variable. If you
                        * want to build WXAgg, and wx-config is in some
                        * other location or has some other name, set the
                        * WX_CONFIG environment variable to the full path of
                        * the executable like so:  export WX_CONFIG=/usr/lib
                        * /wxPython-2.6.1.0-gtk2-unicode/bin/wx-config
                    Qt: no
                   Qt4: no
                 Cairo: no
                libpng: unknown (no pkg-config)

[Edit setup.cfg to suppress the above messages]
============================================================================

Does this mean that it's unable to find the win32_static directory?  I have
in in the matplotlibdirectory.  I think I'm confused on something:  In the
win32 directory, there are instructions for building under cygwin--but is it
necessary to build, or does matplotlib just require the library files and
their headers, which it should be able to find in the win32_static
directory?

Cheers,
William

It looks like I screwed up the order of libraries between freetype2 and 
zlib.  (It was updated to use pkg-config to determine the freetype 
dependencies where possible, but that inadvertently broke Windows.)

Please 'svn up' and try again.  Sorry for the inconvience.

Cheers,
Mike

Is it possible that the freetype library in win32_static is out of date?

Ok--that did fix the expandtabs bug!  I can now see where there is a failure

That's my bad from my changes to setup.py yesterday.

Please update from SVN and try again.

Any ideas?  Thanks!!!

As of yesterday, the setup.py script should give a little more feedback 
about where it is looking for external dependencies.  I took great care 
to not change any of the Windows behavior, since I didn't have a Windows 
box handy to test with.  If you are still stuck after following the 
existing directions, the output of setup.py may offer some clues.

Cheers,

Hi,

   How do I scale an image of a plot so that it fits a landscape A4 page?
How do you move the position of the x and y labels on the axis? How do you
increase the font size of the numbers on each axis?

Hi all,
I'm going crazy with ticklabels positions, I just want to update yticklabel=
s=20
but nothing changes :
>tlist=3Dgca().get_yticklabels()
>tlist[1].get_position()
              Out [571]:(0.0, 1.0)
>tlist[1].set_position((0.0, 2.0))
>draw()
>tlist[1].get_position()
              Out [574]:(0.0, 1.0)
Do I miss something?
Thanks
