[Matplotlib-users] matplotlib windows start in background on Mac OS X

[Geoffrey I. <ir...@na...>]

Hello,

I'm using matplotlib through MacPorts (py26-matplotlib
@1.0.1_2+tkinter) on Mac OS X 10.6.8.  If I run pylab.show() from a
script, the plot window starts up in the background rather than taking
focus.  Is anyone else seeing this behavior or have ideas as to
workarounds?

There's a Raise function in wxWidgets that could in theory bring the
window into focus, but I'm not sure how to get access to the
appropriate object to call Raise on.

Thanks,
Geoffrey
