Hi,
this must have been answered many times already, but I searched the
archives, online docs, but couldn't find anything.
If I do:
$ python
Python 2.6.2 (release26-maint, Apr 19 2009, 01:58:18)
[GCC 4.3.3] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
import pylab
pylab.plot([1, 3, 3])
[<matplotlib.lines.Line2D object at 0x2154350>]
pylab.show()
pylab.show()
the first pylab.show() shows the plot and stays hanging (this is ok)
and then if I close it, to get back to the shell, the second call to
show() does nothing.
One fix is to use:
ipython --pylab
but if I just want to call regular python, or from my own script ---
how do I plot for the second time?
Ondrej
I still haven't figured out how to fix it, so any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Ondrej

Hi Ondrej,
I'm not sure where to find a good explanation of that, but let me give you
some hints. It is intended to use show only once per program. Namely 'show'
should be the last line in your script. If you want interactive plotting you
may consider interactive mode (pyplot.ion-ioff) like in the example below.
Furthermore for dynamic plotting all animation demos might be useful.
Maybe you want to have also a look at
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/users/shell.html .
best regards Matthias

Hi Matthias!
many thanks for the help, that was it. I will now remember to use
show() only once and use other techniques to create something like
show(), but that can be called multiple times.
Thanks,
Ondrej
