[Matplotlib-users] GTKAgg Win XP

[Mark H. <mh...@cl...>]

Hi

In case anyone has the same problem getting GTKAgg (I think this is the =
best option for use with pythonwin & Idle & pycrust since the default =
TKAgg causes GPF) to work on win XP, note that the current version of =
pyGTK for windows - pygtk-2.4.1-2.win32-py2.4.exe doesn't work with the =
versions of GTK available from the page linked to in the matplotlib faq =
owing to an unresolved dll reference. However, gtk-win32-2.6.1-rc3.exe =
will work. I think that GTK has some parallel development strands, which =
is confusing ...

p.s. matplotlib is way cool now I've got it working! All I need now is =
something equally good for doing surface plots, have tried DISLIN but =
the output doesn't look that good particularly the fonts...
