[matplotlib-devel] Test invitation: activate figure windows for non-interactive macosx backend

[Gellule Xg <gel...@fr...>]

If you are a macosx backend user, you are welcomed to test the following 
branch: https://github.com/gellule/matplotlib. With the branch, when 
issuing a pylab.show() in non-interactive mode, the plot windows should 
appear in the foreground with focus, instead of appearing in the 
background. It should make things a little easier for you.

I am also curious to know what people think of making pylab.show() also 
yield the focus to the plot windows in -interactive- mode? All the other 
commands update the plot windows automatically, keeping the focus in the 
python interpreter. So pylab.show() would only do that: yield the focus 
to the plot windows. That is not in the branch (yet).

Cheers,
