Hi John,
Thanks for your help!
I'm not sure how I should go about overriding the existing method. Say
I have the following custom savefig():
def savefig(self, evt):
print "Hello world"
and a figure() instance fig, how do I actually tell
fig.canvas.manager.frame.toolbar.save to actually point to my custom
savefig?
Thanks!
Thomas
