Hi, does anyone know why matplotlib crashes wxbased apps?
> (Pycrust for instance?) is there any way around this?
I have never used matplotlib with wx but I suspect the problem is that
by default matplotlib enters the gtk mainloop, which is not compatible
with other GUIs that do the same. Generally, one has to hack a shell
to use matplotlib interactively -- you can read about two such shells
on http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/interactive.html. I suspect the
same can be done for pycrust, but I haven't any experience with it.
The best thing to do would be to port to a matplotlib backend to wx
and use it natively. That's what I really want to do, because wx
comes with enthought python, which will make it easy for win32 users
to use.
