Did you mean 2.2? It works on 2.3.

For 3.0

%matplotlib notebook

will also work.

In a recent IPython, try starting up a notebook and using

%matplotlib nbagg

You will find that the embedded plot is fully interactive, complete with

a cursor readout and navigation buttons.  I think that's the new part.

That was just adding the "notebook" alias to the `%matplotlib` magic. The
actual underlying functionality has been around for a while longer.
