Is this a framework build of Python? On older versions of OSX, the Python that ships with the OS is not a framework build. Python will then not interact properly with the window manager.

Hi Matt,

ah - this would do it - that axis parameter was added by Eric
Firing on 2010-01-03 - but it didn't go into the 0.99 series - it
went straight to trunk - so you'll have to get at least
matplotlib 1.0 to gain that functionality.
