It is useful to provide code showcasing the full functionnality and
allowing to test it quickly. That said I agree that it probably
doesn't make sense to have a separate file for this.
Should I move the test code back to if __name__ == "__main__": in
figureoptions.py removing the mouse click binding ?

Darren: your help is greatly appreciated.
Is the platform/config specific transparent background issue blocking
? There is nothing in the figureoptions code that should cause this
IMO.
