[Matplotlib-users] [Fwd: Re: [Boa Constr] Fw: Any Chaco plugins?]

[Flavio C. C. <fcc...@fi...>]

HI everybody,

I dont know if any of you is aware of the boa-constructor python IDE and
wx gui builder.

I use it and subscribe to its mailing list. Recently, there was this
discussion about having some scientific plotting controls added to Boa.
I include below, a message from Boa's main developer, Ryaan Booysen,
where he gives some pointers to anyone that might be interested in
adding plotting controls to Boa. They are talking about Chaco, but as
far as I know, Chaco development is stalled and Matplotlib is far
superior (IMHO).

I believe that if anyone is interested in doing that should contact
Ryaan. He is a very nice guy. I also believe that it would greatly
improve the visibility of matplotlib since Boa has a very large user
base.

Well, its just an idea.

have fun

Flavio

You may look at the examples for adding a control in
Plug-ins/UserCompanions.py

I suggest you first try to use the Custom Classes feature to
use a Chaco Plot window in the Designer.
See Docs/boa/apphelp/MixingSource.html
This might be a simpler option.

Cheers,
Riaan.
