[Matplotlib-users] How by clicking an axes label open a dialog?

[sa6113 <s.p...@gm...>]

I want to use backendQtAgg inorder to imbed plot dialog into basic dialog
and by clicking the labels open plot option.
I couldn't use 'motion_notify_event' because the event only handles into
plot area not in canvas area!!!
anybody knows?

Hi,

maybe your problem was solved meanwhile, but if not I've got an idea about it. 
I think you have to adapt the framework used in the widgets.py defining the 
class CheckButtons. There one connects the button_press_event to a method 
_clicked and in this method it is checked wheter or not the click was inside 
the area associated with the label
t.get_window_extent().contains(event.x, event.y)

I admit my late reply, but maybe it is useful anyway.

Kind regards,
Matthias
