Does anyone have an example showing how to change the cursor position
using the key pad instead of the mouse?
-Mathew
Are you talking about externally to mpl or within mpl? I have some code from a couple of months ago that automated graph interaction that allowed me to exactly reproduce various actions so I could profile the execution.
It uses the Gtk accessibility framework to control the mouse.

I'm looking for something like

---------
display = gdk_display_get_default ();
screen = gdk_display_get_default_screen (display);
/* get cursor position */
gdk_display_get_pointer (display, NULL, &x, &y, NULL);
/* set new cusor position */
x += xadd;
y += yadd;
gdk_display_warp_pointer (display, screen, x, y);

Here is how to do it
display=mainwindow.get_display()
screen = gtk.gdk.Display.get_default_screen(display)
x,y=mainwindow.get_pointer()
s,x,y,m = display.get_pointer()
gtk.gdk.Display.warp_pointer(display, screen,x+1,y)

Ok, glad that works for you. For reference, the email I was referring to is here:
http://www.mail-archive.com/matplotlib-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg08321.html
The toolkit offers a bunch of other tools for scripting out interaction, in case anybody cares about that sort of thing. (actually, might be a good idea to consider adding stuff like that to the testing suite…)
