glue does a lot of fancy interactive stuff, they might have something like that.
From a reproducible computing PoV that functionality is a bit of a problem until we have a way to serialize figures.
It is looking more and more like that is what I will be doing over the holidays…

Dear all,
We’re, at our lab, trying to (slowly) make the transition from a famous (but expansive) numerical software to Python.
The most recurring remark made against the use of Python/Matplotlib instead of this famous software is the fact that one cannot male simple click/copy/paste of a curve from a figure into another.
I guess this heavily depends of the backend used, or of the OS. So my question is probably naive, but anyway :
is there a plan to add an interactive way to select one or more curves from a matplotlib figure and to copy/paste them into a another figure ?
It is, I think, a killing feature for many beginners/average users who used to work with matlab (oups, I’ve said it).
Best regards,
Julien

OK, thanks for your answer. I’ve opened a issue in Matplotlib’s github.

Plans? No. This is the first I have ever heard of such a feature. You could always add a feature request for it (this is a community-developed tool). It might even fold in nicely with the MEP22 work going on to refactor our interactivity and make it easier to add tools.
Keep in mind that Matplotlib is not the end-all-be-all of plotting in Python. There are a bunch of other tools that build off of matplotlib to add more features and functionality. A bunch off the top of my head are: bokeh, seaborn, mpldatacursor. There are a few others, but their names aren’t coming to me right now.
Cheers!
