Thanks for the bug reports,
I thing the crash and the shear effect are both part of the same bug
that arose from a floating point error in converting figure units to
width and height. I believe this is a simple fix. I was able to
replicate both of the buggy behaviors on my winxp box, and the
following change fixed both. Perhaps you and Heiko can test on your
respective scripts and let me know.
On site-packages/matplotlib/backends/backend_wxagg.py, replace
FigureCanvasWXAgg.draw with
def draw(self):
"""
Render the figure using agg
"""
DEBUG_MSG("draw()", 1, self)
FigureCanvasAgg.draw(self)
s = self.tostring_rgb()
w = int(self.renderer.width)
h = int(self.renderer.height)
image = wxEmptyImage(w,h)
image.SetData(s)
self.bitmap = image.ConvertToBitmap()
self.gui_repaint()
Let me know!
Know if I can just figure out why there is the irritating flicker on
resizes in win32....

Hello John,
I tested the fix and the problem seems to be gone. I will continue the testing and will let you know in case I will find anything else.
Thank you for your fast response and for the great library..

I can confirm that this fix works for me too. Thanks, that's a big help!

The flicker doesn't seem so bad to me, to be honest. It seemed worse because I was using embedding_in_wx4 (which has an extra EVT_PAINT redraw).
