Hi all, All the usual apologies if this is a FAQ, but I can't find it. Is there any way to change the backend interactively when using ipython? Best of all would a way to make changes in the middle of a session, but even being able to do it at the beginning without editing matplotlibrc would be great. For what I actually need to do, I don't really need to change the backend, but what I'd like to be able to do is just interactively stop all interactive (X11) output for my chosen backend -- I'm working over the network and it's very slow, but I want my savefig commandds to produce something. Without ipython, I know you can do -dAgg (for example) but I don't see how /if that works with ipython. Andrew |
