Hi Mike,
About this question: TypeError: coercing to Unicode: need string or buffer, dict found
The version of matplotlib that i’m using is matplotlib-0.99.1-py2.6
And how do I remove the font cache in ~ / .matplotlib / fontList.cache
My Operating System is Windows.
Thanks,
···

Just in case, if anyone needs the answer, I figured it out.
I used the transData transform in order to draw the lines correctly.
Here is the code -
The code below is to add the lines near the tick labels
fig = barGraph.fig
xAxisLim=barGraph.ax.xaxis.get_view_interval()
tickLocArray = barGraph.ax.xaxis.get_majorticklocs()
yStart=-70
yEnd=-0.5
line = Line2D([xAxisLim[0], xAxisLim[0]],
[yStart,yEnd],linewidth=2, color='black', transform=barGraph.ax.transData)
fig.lines.append(line)
for i in xrange(11):
lnWidth=2 yStartOffset=0 if((i+1)%4 != 0): lnWidth=1 yStartOffset=20 xOffset = tickLocArray[i] + (tickLocArray[i+1] - tickLocArray[i])/2 line = Line2D([xOffset, xOffset], [yStart+yStartOffset,yEnd],linewidth=lnWidth, color='black', transform=barGraph.ax.transData) fig.lines.append(line)
line = Line2D([xAxisLim[1], xAxisLim[1]],
[yStart,yEnd],linewidth=2, color='black', transform=barGraph.ax.transData)
fig.lines.append(line)
plt.figtext(0.247, 0.05, ‘1’)
plt.figtext(0.523, 0.05, ‘2’)
plt.figtext(0.797, 0.05, ‘4’)
Thank You!

Dear All,
I am trying to write a program in matplotlib to generate stacked bar
graphs.
My problem is that the commands - plt.show() and
self.fig.savefig(fileName) generate different outputs.
I tried different output formats like PDF, PNG, EPS. But the problem
remains the same.
This happens for the lines that I am trying to draw outside the plot.
I am trying to draw vertical lines between xticklabels.
I have uploaded the data file and the code file.
http://old.nabble.com/file/p33893817/matplot1.py matplot1.py
Could anyone explain how to resolve this problem?
Thank You,
Raj

It’s a long shot, but have you tried removing the font cache in
~/.matplotlib/fontList.cache? What version of matplotlib are you using?

Hi,
I’m following the example in the gallery to do a barchart plot (see
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/api/barchart_demo.html ).
In contrast to the example I would like to see the error bars only above
the bars, so I tried
rects2 = ax.bar(ind+width, womenMeans, width, color=‘y’,
yerr=stds, error_kw = {'barsabove': True,
'ecolor' : 'k'}
While the ‘ecolor’ argument gets accepted, ‘barsabove’ apparently has no
effect (error bars still point up and downwards) - yet, no warning /
error is triggered. Where is my mistake? Or is this a bug (still using
version 1.0.1) with a known work-around?
TIA

Chris,
I don’t think “barsabove” does what you want. By “above”, it means that
the errorbar is plotted in a layer on top of the plotting symbol rather
than in the layer under it. Both ends will be plotted.
To get what you want, you might want to try (Note: untested):
rects2 = ax.bar(ind+width, womenMeans, width, color=‘y’,
yerr=np.vstack([[0]*len(stds), stds]), error_kw = {'ecolor'
: ‘k’})
When yerr is a 2xN numpy array, errorbars are plotted at y-yerr[0, :] and
y+yerr[1,:]. So, np.vstack creates a 2xN array where the first row is all
zeros and the second row is the stds values.
I hope that works for you!

Hello
What is the size of a single image file? If they are very big, it is
better to do everything from processing to ploting at once for each file.
As stated below, each image is single-channel, of 4600x3840 pixels. As
you can see on the code, there is not much processing, just loading
the images and plotting them. What it’s slow is not the execution of
the code, is the interactive zooming and panning once the plots "are
in the screen".
It’s 15 images, single-channel, of 4600x3840 pixels each.
This is a lot of data. ?8bit or 16bit ?
They are floating point values (for example, from 0 to 45.xxx). If I
understood correctly, setting the vmin and vmax, matplotlib should
normalize the values to an appropriate number of bits.
for f in filelist:
everything should happen in this loop
? ? ?dataset = ncdf.Dataset(os.path.join(sys.argv[1],f), ‘r’)
? ? ?data.append(dataset.variables[variable][:])
instead of creating this big list, use a temporary array (which will be
overwritten)
? ? ?dataset.close()
? ? ?dates.append((f.split(‘‘)[2][:-3],f.split(’’)[1]))
Why? It’s true that this way at the beginning it eats a lot of RAM,
but then it is released after each pop() (and calculating the maximum
of all the data without plotting is needed to use the same
normalization level on all the plots). Anyway, the slowness ocurrs
during the interaction of the plot, not during the execution of the
code.

Thanks, Ben. This is indeed what I was looking for and gives the desired
behavior.
Thanks a lot!
