matplotlib-users Mailing List for matplotlib

I get the error Cannot combine None with str from line
709 in pylab.py

figimage.__doc__ = Figure.figimage.__doc__ + """
Addition kwargs: hold = [True|False] overrides default
hold state"""


I removed the str part of the line and then get the
following error:

  File
"/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/matplotlib/pylab.py",
line 709, in ?
    Figimage.__doc__ = Figure.figimage.__doc__
 NameError: name 'Figimage' is not defined

I saw a reference to this error on the list before but
there was no reference to except turning off optimize
mode. Unfortunately that is not an option in my
production env. Any suggestions??

Thanks,

Vineet

Are you sure you got the latest demo?  I don't have my 2.5 version 
installed anymore as I just got 2.6 the other day, but in 2.6 demo's all 
the ones I looked at use the new namespace.

Getting all the right versions is not easy.  I stayed until recently on 
wxPython 2.4 (one because it is the "stable" release, but also as I 
couldn't get all tools I want to use on 2.5).  Only switched to 2.5 a 
couple of month ago, that switch was much easier then I first thought 
and now with 2.6 its even better.  Haven't looked at wxGlade for some 
time, but I understand its handling of sizers is more intuative then in 
Boa, but then I am pretty sure Riaan will catch up on this.  When I 
started using wxPython I wanted an IDE and not just a GUI generator that 
is why I went with Boa at the time.

We wx fans are still waiting for THE book (hopefully sometimes this 
year).  I agree good docs are a must (also I don't like having to read 
them ;-) ), I don't like the wxWidget stuff as it is in C++ but after a 
while one gets the hang of it, however I find most of the times the 
answer in the demo, or now in the new API docs, or the wiki pages and if 
all that doesn't work someone will help when you post to 
wxP...@li....
