Re: [matplotlib-devel] bugs found

Tennessee,

Maybe I missed it, but I did not see any reply to your message.  We 
welcome simple scripts that expose bugs--and the simpler the better.  If 
something more than a simple script is required, then instead of sending 
  a big file to the list, you could put it on an ftp server if you have 
access to one, or send it to one of us off-list upon request.

What backend were you using, and what operating system?  What mpl 
version?   Was the lack of connectedness at the level of a missing 
pixel, or was a whole line segment missing?

So it sounds like it must be a problem with a particular backend.

Until a recent change in SVN, scatter required an array, not a list, for 
its colors argument.  Could this be the problem in your case?
