Re: [matplotlib-devel] Pylab example (gradient_bar.py) only works for png

No problem.  I didn't mean to imply that you should have known you bug 
was a duplicate.  I was mainly pointing it out for other developers to 
keep track of the issue, since I suspect your issue and the one in the 
bug are the same, but that's probably not obvious to most users.

I suspect the fix is as simple as twiddling a single line of code, it's 
just not obvious to me how the image flipping is supposed to work to 
have consistent behavior across backends -- and I hope another developer 
here has a clue...

Thanks for your report,
Mike
