There is no official documentation, but there are a few resources
* The class documentation at
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/classdocs.html
* the examples embedding_in*.py in the examples directory.
* examples/pythonic_matplotlib.py describes the translation from the
matlab style interface to the pythonic, OO interface
* Another good resource is matlab.py. This is just a thin wrapper
to the API, so you can look and see how it is done there,
translating all the gcf() calls to your figure instance, all the
gca() calls to your axes instance, and so on.
Other than that, you can post here...
I'm working on some additional documentation but it is not ready yet.
