Does anyone protest to removing all of the branches from the main repo except: - master - v1.4.x - v1.4.2-doc Having old branches around can lead to confusion (see https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/pull/3748#issuecomment-61372162). Tom |

I agree with the basic idea: it was the result of a creative process, and they choose to keep that as proprietary IP. Therefore mpl will not include a clone of this color map. If a user decides to make and use a clone, that's their business, not ours. We shouldn't encourage it. > > The only things that bother me in this IP claim, is the status of all > the plots produced with this colormap. They are in a sense a > /derivative/ work, am I right ? So the question becomes : does Mathworks > owns IP right for all these plots ?! Perhaps they could claim copyright infringement; but from the mpl perspective, I don't think it matters. The question will only arise in practice if a user makes a plot with a clone of parula, and Mathworks chooses to turn it into a legal issue. I think it is unlikely this will happen; but if and when it does, I don't think mpl will be involved. We will not be supplying the colormap or in any way encouraging or condoning its use in mpl, unless and until Mathworks releases it.

Hi folks, a colleague from NCAR in Boulder just sent me this link about a conference they are organizing in the spring: https://sea.ucar.edu/conference/2015 I figured this might be of interest to many on these lists. The actual call isn't up yet, so if you're interested, watch that site for an upcoming call when they post it (I'm not directly involved, just passing the message along). Cheers f -- Fernando Perez (@fperez_org; http://fperez.org) fperez.net-at-gmail: mailing lists only (I ignore this when swamped!) fernando.perez-at-berkeley: contact me here for any direct mail |

Thanks Thomas, that's great to know. I'll try using a newer version from Github, and nice that the correction will gradually propagate to our users. I'll ask my other questions on the user list; thanks for explaining!

Andy, The issue of the axes frame corners _should_ be fixed in 1.4 The user mailing list is still a going concern, the SF archives are just broken. They know (and the archive pages are _less_ broken than they used to be), but have not fixed it yet.

Hi all, I have a question/request about improving a minor aspect of plot cosmetics, namely that axis spines seem to be rendered as 4 individual lines, meaning that the corners of the axes boundary do not match up with a neat corner but have a "stair" appearance. I've attached a screenshot from a zoomed PDF showing this effect, made with MPL 1.3.1 from Ubuntu 14.04... so apologies if it's already fixed in the latest 1.4.x versions. This effect is also visible in PNG output, as just a couple of pixels in the corners that look "ragged". Would it be possible to tidy this up... or point me to where in the code this rendering is done, if it's something easy that I could maybe help with? At the same time, I note in this zoom that the axis is showing tick marks at the very end(s) of the axis, where they overlap with the other axis/plot boundary line: is there an automatic way to elide tick marks in that redundant position? Apologies if this isn't a good place for these queries/requests -- I had a look at the matplotlib-user and -announce list archives linked from the web page and they seem to have gone defunct in 2012, hence coming here. I am happy to do a bit of development to address little cosmetic tweaks like this, but am not yet familiar with MPL internals. Thanks! Andy PS. I also have a question about how to enable old-style figures in a font when using the TeX/PGF rendering backed, cf. \usepackage[osf]{mathpazo}, but I'll wait to see if this is an appropriate place for such questions before troubling you with that! -- Dr Andy Buckley, Royal Society University Research Fellow Particle Physics Expt Group, University of Glasgow / PH Dept, CERN |

Sorry - I accidentally sent this reply just to Nathaniel - returning to this as it bit me again: On 7/14/14, Nathaniel Smith <nj...@po...> wrote: > Wouldn't a better default be to just close all figures when they're > displayed? It can't be common that someone wants to show the same plot > repeatedly (and if they do that could have an option)...? Yes, I think that would be a better default. You mean that if :context: is true, then always do something like ``plt.close('all')`` before running the relevant code and looking for figures. It would change the current behavior, but I agree that would be better. Anyone disagree? If not, I will make a pull request to change the behavior... Cheers, Matthew |

Hot on the tails of v1.4.1, we have a v1.4.2 due to an error in the boxplot api in pyplot.py The only changes between 1.4.1 and 1.4.2 are: - corrected boxplot in pyplot.py - added extra paths to default search paths for freetype Tom -- Thomas Caswell tca...@gm... |

Sure, but the first two of those are just extra constraints on the optimization. Apparently they'll be making another blog post soon describing the actual constraints they used. -- Nathaniel J.

(I have no idea how > copyrightable a list of numbers is !) The general rule is that copyright requires "creative expression". This is a pretty marginal case at best, since that the colormap appears to have been derived by solving an optimization problem, but worst case we could always re-solve that optimization problem ourselves.

Hi, Matlab is now shipping with a new default colormap, named "parula" [1,2]. It is meant to overcome the many issues of the current default "jet". It seems that the RGB values of this new colormap are already onnline [3]. So my question is: * is it worth adding this parula in the Matplotlib colormap collection ? (I think it is) * is there any copyright issue with that ? (I have no idea how copyrightable a list of numbers is !) (I'm not speeking of changing the *default* colormap since this is already discussed here https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/issues/875) best, Pierre 1 http://blogs.mathworks.com/steve/2014/10/13/a-new-colormap-for-matlab-part-1-introduction/ 2 http://blogs.mathworks.com/steve/2014/10/20/a-new-colormap-for-matlab-part-2-troubles-with-rainbows/ 3 http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/158575-values-fo-colormap-parula |

Hi, I'm working on https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/pull/3393 and poking around at _alpha, _forced_alpha, _rgb, and _orig_color members of GraphicsContextBase. I see quite a number of issues: 1) "_rgb" is (almost) always a 4 tuple which may be better named "_rgba". 2) "_orig_color" takes on many different value types -- I think it can be deleted and the "_rgb" variable used in the one place it is needed. 3) "get_rgb" documents that it returns a 3 or 4 tuple. In fact, I think it returns a 4-tuple (see point 1). backend_ps.py is a particularly scary example of the 3 tuple interpretation being taken with-out further thought. 4) I suppose there is a good reason for the existence of "_forced_alpha" and "_alpha", but I don't understand it. Since "_rgb" is a 4-tuple in common (all?) usage, why can't "set_alpha" merely set "_rgb[3]"? I'm going to be pushing something more to my branch at https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/pull/3393 -- deleting "_orig_color" and renaming "_rgb" to "_rgba". But even with these changes, the points above give me pause. (I'm also sitting on irc right now asking these same questions). Joel |
