matplotlib-devel Mailing List for matplotlib (Page 3)

Is it possible to set different alpha values for patch edges and faces?

I found an old thread on this
topic<http://old.nabble.com/patches-have-incorrect-alpha-values-td22667217.html>.
It seems like there was some general agreement about the design. Was there
any progress on the implementation?

Thanks,

So, I just tried running the test suite on matplotlib and it came back with
70+ failures.  I personally don't have the time or the focus to go through
them all, but I suspect most if not all are related to some "snapping"
fixes as most of the diff images seem to be related to changes in the graph
borders and slight changes in text placement.  Maybe it would be useful to
come up with a tool that could process through the result_images directory
and display the images and their diffs and help us replace the images we
deem as acceptable (or bump thresholds if we don't want to replace the
image).

What do others think? Maybe someone already has such a script?

I implemented a new feature for colorbars, allowing the user to control the
length of the triangular extensions at either end. This is useful for
making plots consistent with those produced with other graphics packages.

The URL for the comparison is:

http://github.com/ajdawson/matplotlib/compare/master...colorbar-extensions

I think this is a useful feature, I hope it can be included. Let me know
when/if I need to do anything else.

Thanks for the report. The code to write movie files has been
refactored substantially to improve a wide variety of problems. One
changes has been to use communicate() instead of wait(), both to get
stdout and stderr text, but also to fix a similar problem on linux.
Can you try replacing the close() and wait() calls with just a single
call to communicate() and see if that also fixes your problem?

Thanks,

Hi,

while trying out animation.ArtistAnimation, my script would not
terminate.  The .mp4 file was generated and later found out that the
script would block at proc.wait() within _make_movie.  ffmpeg
generates quite a bit of text and it seems that if stdout/stderr are
not closed, wait() does not return (this is on Windows).  I have made
some modifications to animation.py to get it to work, but can't tell
how this will behave on other platforms.


Proposed change in matplotlib/animation.py:

    def _make_movie(self, fname, fps, codec, frame_prefix, cmd_gen=None):
        # Uses subprocess to call the program for assembling frames into a
        # movie file.  *cmd_gen* is a callable that generates the sequence
        # of command line arguments from a few configuration options.
        from subprocess import Popen, PIPE
        if cmd_gen is None:
            cmd_gen = self.ffmpeg_cmd
        command = cmd_gen(fname, fps, codec, frame_prefix)
        verbose.report('Animation._make_movie running command: %s'%'
'.join(command))
        proc = Popen(command, shell=False,
            stdout=PIPE, stderr=PIPE)
+      proc.stdout.close()
+      proc.stderr.close()
        proc.wait()

This was tested to work with the configuration below.

OS: Windows 7
Python Version: Python 2.7.2 |EPD 7.2-1 (32-bit)| (default, Sep 14
2011, 11:02:05) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)]

Hi!  Bumping this upstream from Sage, where we use quiver to draw
slope fields.  The following code

###
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np

fig = plt.figure()
r = np.arange(10)
X,Y = np.meshgrid(r,r)
U, V = np.cos(X), np.sin(Y)
Q = plt.quiver( U, V, headlength=0, headaxislength=0)
###

produces exactly what we want, but generates some warnings:

/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/matplotlib/quiver.py:622:
RuntimeWarning: divide by zero encountered in divide
  shrink = length/minsh
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/matplotlib/quiver.py:623:
RuntimeWarning: invalid value encountered in multiply
  X0 = shrink * X0[np.newaxis,:]
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/matplotlib/quiver.py:624:
RuntimeWarning: invalid value encountered in multiply
  Y0 = shrink * Y0[np.newaxis,:]

We can get around this by using some tiny headlength (minsh =
self.minshaft * self.headlength) but it seems more natural to avoid
drawing one entirely.  Would there be any objections to a pull request
which special-cased 0 to avoid this?

Tony,

Thank you.  If you have time, would you make a new pull request, please, 
against v1.1.x instead of master?  This seems like a bug that might as 
well be fixed before the next maintenance release.  If it goes into 
v1.1.x then it will automatically be included in master as well, as soon 
as someone merges v1.1.x into master.

It's a trivial change, but I added a PR to fix
this<https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/pull/754>,
just to make it as easy as possible for the devs.

I was just analyzing why 145 colours were listed in 
matplotlib.colors.cnames instead of the 140 that are apparently "HTML 
standard" and, although there's a good reason for that, in the process I 
discovered that an issue reported in 2007 in the mailing list is still 
outstanding in 1.1.0:

http://www.mail-archive.com/mat...@li.../msg00669.html

Basically, although there is block of code there to "add british 
equivs", the master list already has the British 'lightgrey' in it, 
instead of 'lightgray'.  For consistency with all the other cases 
('darkgray', 'dimgray', etc) the patch in the message above should be 
applied, with the result that both "lightgray" and "lightgrey" would be 
legal, as all the other types of gray already are.

Is this something I should just ticket, or is a report here sufficient?

Thanks.

When resizing a figure using `fig.set_size_inches`, the Qt backend doesn't
take into account the height of the status bar or the toolbar.

For example, the following script plots two figures---both *should* be
1-inch square, but this is only true of the second figure.

#~~~~~
import matplotlib as mpl
mpl.use('qt4agg')
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

fig = plt.figure()
fig.set_size_inches(1, 1, forward=True)

plt.figure(figsize=(1, 1))

plt.show()
#~~~~~

Note that this bug doesn't appear with `savefig` since that doesn't need to
account of toolbar/status bar heights.

I've submitted a PR for a
fix<https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/pull/748>,
but I don't know how general this is. For example, I couldn't get the
figure to redraw after changing the figure size with `fig.set_figwidth` or
`fig.set_figheight`, so I couldn't test for that.

Also, I noticed that 'tkagg' has problems with this example code, but I
didn't have time to look into that.

I'm quite surprised it works. But my changes should not break that 
(unless your /usr/local contains anything that matplotlib needs and that 
is not compatible with Apple's python).

That's referring to PSF or other "top-level" projects.

Google doesn't care about how the PSF arranges its projects
internally, so there's not going to be anything about that on their
project calendar. As far as Google's concerned, the PSF is a single
"organization", and this is the stage where they decide which
"organizations" get funded. (The PSF will, of course.)

(Two-time GSoC mentoring organization admin person)

From the list of 2008 given in the FAQ (http://code.google.com/soc/2008/), it seems that a mentoring organization corresponds roughly to a project. 


Also, from the FAQ:

Organization Administrators

Organization administrators submit an organization's application, and have the ability to invite system users to act as mentors or co-organization admins for their accepted organization. They have all the same system rights as Mentors, though if they wish to mentor a student they will also need to create a Mentor role profile. Users cannot act as an organization administrator and student for the same Program, but an organization administrator can act as an admin/mentor for another organization. All the organization administrators are mentors for that organization by default. They don't have to become mentors for the organization they are administrating explicitly.

Mentors

Mentors have the ability to review student applications and score them. Any user has the capability to apply as a mentor for any particular organization, though note that organization administrators must accept their request. Users cannot act as both mentor and student for the same Program, but a mentor can act as an organization administrator/mentor for another organization. Mentors are responsible for the projects they are mentoring during the GSoC's coding phase. They will also have the ability to submit evaluations when requested for the student projects they are mentoring.



From what I've understood, you can register yourself as an organization administrator and later invite mentors to join if accepted.
But it is not really clear to me (do mentors register now or later ?)

I thought it was the 6th too, but it turns out to be the 9th.  Maybe
they changed it?

March 9th?

I interpret it as PSF unless you want to register as a separate
mentoring organization. Eg., sympy wasn't under PSF last year. Since
spots are allocated to the organization, if you anticipate having a
lot of interest it makes sense to register as a mentoring organization
and try to get your own allotment. However, there's a greater burden
put on mentoring organization as far as administrative duties and
project size expectations. At least that's my understanding.

I can't recall is it's a GSoC requirement or a PSF requirement right
now (I think the latter), but you need at least 3 mentors per project.

The timeline at
http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/events/google/gsoc2012says March
6th is the "[GSOC] Mentoring organization application deadline".
 How do you interpret "mentoring organization" there?  As the PSF or
someone under their umbrella such as statsmodels or mpl?

I went ahead and filled out the mentor application form that Nicolas
pointed me to as "John Hunter" and use matplotlib.sf.net as the website.
 Perhaps a few other MPL devs willing to mentor  should do the same just to
be on the safe side.

You might ask on the sympy list. I think they were actually registered
as an organization administrator last year, given the number of
students they had.

For statsmodels, we sign up under the umbrella of PSF who are the
organization. So we don't do anything until PSF announces that they
have been accepted as an organization IIRC.

We plan to do the same this year.

One thing I am unclear on.  They make a distinction between being mentors
and organization administrators.  In the past, PSF has always been the
sponsoring organization.  What I am wondering is: does mpl need to have an
organization administrator in addition to mentors, or is PSF the
organization administrator and we just sign up individually as mentors?
