matplotlib-users Mailing List for matplotlib (Page 16)

Any ideas?  I can't seem to get it to work.  I am basically doing a
horizontal stacked bar chart, and using different colors for the stacks. 
Just need some way to identify what each color stands for.

If the problem is "namespace pollution"  (one package overriding names
defined earlier) then the following should work:

from pylab import plot as pplot  (where "pplot" is an unused name)

or

import pylab as p

then use, p.plot() instead of plot()
(this latter method is what I use.)

All of the examples in the "api" directory use the object-oriented 
interface, rather than the pylab one.

Hi Folks!

Is there a way to plot simple x/y Data in matplotlib WITHOUT using the
"import pylab" command? (in all examples I only saw pylab).

I' working with openbabel(pybel) as well and I've got serious problems
whenever I use "from pylab import plot" or similar commands -
 
(if I do, SDF files aren't read out anymore properly...)


Thanks alot

It did not figure how to use that!
I've tried in ipython :
        import numpy as np
        t = np.linspace(0,1,1024)
        f = np.sin(10*t)/1e5
        plot(t,f)
        ax = gca()
        ax.ticklabel_format(style='sci', axis='y')
        show()

but the yticklabels are still in plain notation...
I've googled, but I still can not find where I am wrong!

Not that I know of.  It was not being maintained even before the move to 
0.98.x.

Fixed in svn 6140.  Thanks for the report.

Peter: did John's solution fix your problem?
