Hello all, I would like to suggest the addition of a graph example that explicitly uses more style resources than "the bare minimum". The only use of styles in the graph examples is selection between line and symbols. Other things are used in some examples but always when drawing not at ploting (yes, that makes difference). The impression I get is that most people go directly to the examples page and manual (and miss the fact it's not a users but a reference manual) and end up completely lost when trying to use graph styles. I'm sending as a suggestion a file with the stuff that I would have liked to have found myself in the examples page. As Wobsta likes to point out, most of it is obvious once you know it, yeah sure, "once you know it" ;-) Peace, -- Francisco Borges Alfa Informatica - RuG |

At one point I want to add the possibility to horizontally shift the y axis (and vise versa for the x axis) so that it could start at x=0 (or somewhere else). This would perfectly fit into that example as an simple, additional feature presentation. For the moment I've just added some manual ticks to supress the ugly looking ticks at the end. I've just published the example on the webpage. Thank you very much for this nice contribution!

I would add my few cents: I really like the idea of users contributing interesting (and in general various) examples. It is examples that make a rapid use of PyX possible without spending hours of delving into the details (and I'm not trying to say the design is bad, Andre, the contrary: it's good, but it takes time to understand it). In other words: contributions are certainly very very welcome. D.
