Re: [Matplotlib-users] Problem saving a plot in OSX

Hi Vincent, I had this problem when I installed python from source code and did not use the --enable-framework flag at the ./configure stage (learned I should have it from some document - but can't remember if it was in matplotlib doc, on the internet, in a python doc etc). I then went back and recompiled python with this flag (at configure), but still had some warnings. So then I built python from the a dmg file from the python website, and everything works great (I don't think I even needed to rebuild matplot lib). The enable-framework option is what you need for proper GUI backend support (here I don't really know what I am talking about, but I think I remember the key jargon) and the OSX save box is part of this GUI interface. Maybe this is what is causing your problem also. Andre On Mar 22, 2010, at 11:10 PM, Vincent Davis wrote: > I am not able to name plots when saving them from the plot menu in > OSX.
