Re: [Matplotlib-users] executing function when view interval changes

[Jae-Joon L. <lee...@gm...>]

I took a stab at this during the weekends and a patch is attached.

1) introduces a new command subplot2grid. e.g.,

subplot2grid(shape=(3,3), loc=(0,0), colspan=3)

it still creates a Subplot instance.

2) subplot command can take a SubplotSpec instance which is created
using the GridSpec.

gs = GridSpec(3,3) # shape=3,3
subplot(gs.new_subplotspec(loc=(0,0), colspan=3))

or

subplot(gs[0,:])

or

subplot(gs[0:3]) # supermongo-like

For suplot with a single cell,

subplot(gs[0])  # => subplot(331)

or

subplot(gs[0,0])


3) Each GridSpec can have associated subplot parameters (subplot
params of the figure is used if not set).


Also see the example (demo_gridspec.py).

We may further try to improve it (during the sprint maybe) if others
are happy with the patch.

Regards,

-JJ
