Hi all,

does anybody know how to draw a permille sign in ylabel ?

Nils

You can use Unicode.

  ylabel(u'\u2030')

Degree Celsius u'\u2103' doesn't work.

/usr/local/lib64/python2.4/site.packages/matplotlib/mathtext.py:722: 
MathTextWarning: Unrecognized symbol '\u2103'.
Substituting with a dummy symbol.

How can I resolve the problem ?
