What's new in matplotlib 0.73
new contour functionality
Filled contours (polygons) with contourf and clabel . See
examples/contour_demo.py, examples/contourf_demo.py,
examples/contour_image.py and the screenshot at
http://matplotlib.sf.net/screenshots.html#pcolor_demo. Thanks Nadia
and Eric for lots of hard work. This code is not perfect, so please
let us know if you find bugs or problems.
native font support back in PS
Added new rc param param ps.useafm so ps backend can use native
fonts; this currently breaks PS mathtext but makes for smaller files
colorbar now a figure method
Refactored colorbar code out of pylab into Figure API for API
developers. matplotlib.pylab colorbar is now a thin wrapper to this
function.
minor enhancements and bug-fixes
Experimental support for GTK w/o double buffering, added double
buffering to gtkagg, exposed some core agg functionality in
matplotlib.agg, upgraded wrapper generator to CXX 5.3.1, added a
custom pixel transfer function for GTK which works for Numeric and
numarray, added patch for problem with Japanse fonts in windows
registry, fixed ticks for horizontal colorbars, fixed labelsep
legend bug
