Hi All,
I am very new to matplotlib and still trying to find my way through docs and api, so please excuse me if there is a simple way to do this.
So the situation is this - I would like to write a script that spawns multiple plots and exits, but the plots window do not die until they are explicitly closed.
Is there a simple way to do this. All the examples that I have looked at so far have scripts that only exit once the call to show() returns. Is there some mechanism that
matplotlib provides to make the show() return? I am of course using the pylab interface now, but I can start using the core matplotlib api if need. Thanks in advance for your time.
Regards,
-ss
I'm not sure what you're after exactly, but your design needs may be
solved by calling pylab.ion(True).
If not the ezplot library that I wrote may do it for you.

Bill,
Thanks for your reply. pylab(ion) is not what I meant. Consider this simply script -
…
simple.py
from pylab import *
plot([1,2,3])
show()
…
Now, if I do python simple.py on a cmd prompt, this will open up a plot window, but the script won’t return until the plot window is closed.
I would like simple.py process to end but the plot window to be still up. I have users who would like to type one command after another and not have to close any of the plot windows created.
I looked at ezplot, but it looks like a rather heavy weight soln, but maybe I need to do something similar. Is there any other way around this?
Thanks,
ss
