[Matplotlib-users] OO inteface question.

[Chris B. <Chr...@no...>]

Hi all,

There has been some recent discussion about perhaps improving the OO 
interface. So Here's a question:

How do I save an AGG figure with the OO interface?

For example:
 >>> fig = pylab.figure()
 >>> ax = fig.add_subplot(1,1,1)
 >>> ax.plot(range(10), pylab.sin(range(10)))

Now how do I save it as a PNG? I can do:

 >>> pylab.savefig("test.png")

But then that is the interface I'm trying to get away from.

Looking at the docs, it looks like the agg back-end should have:
 >>> fig.print_figure("Test.png")
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
AttributeError: Figure instance has no attribute 'print_figure'

But no such luck.

Another option would be:

 >>> fig.savefig

But that's not there either.

Thanks,
-Chris
