I have a pygtk application which uses matplotlib for graphics. The
application maintains one or more matplotlib.FigureCanvasGTKAgg objects
and correspondig matplotlib.figure.Figure objects, and switches between
them as needed. My problem is that after switching from one
canvas/figure pair to another, the navigation toolbar sometimes loses
the ability to switch out of pan/zoom mode, and pick events fail. I get
tracebacks like those shown below. Can anyone tell me what "You do not
own this lock" means? Or why the axes is trying to delete a property
that doesn't exist?
