[Matplotlib-users] buttons in toolbar2

[Wolfgang K. <wke...@go...>]

Dear all,

I have had a quick look at changing the buttons in toolbar2. This seems 
to be backend dependent. It would be really nice to make it possible to 
add buttons to the toolbar and be backend agnostic. The button should 
have a picture and a hovertext associated with it. Is it very hard to 
include this in the next release of matplotlib?

Cheers
     Wolfgang

This has been on the wish list for quite a while, but it is not a small 
job.  I am not aware that anyone has tackled it.

I would love to see this work done, if for no other reason than removing 
a lot of duplicate code.
