Hi,
I'm trying to create a small GUI program where I can do plots using
Matplotlib. I've been trying to borrow code from the examples at the
matplotlib website, but I can't get it to work.
I want to be able to create a wx.Panel that contains an axis for
plotting. Around it i want other panels containing various settings,
buttons etc. to control the plot. So far I can't even get the program
to actually show a plot in a panel.
Does anyone here have experience in making a wxpython GUI with
matplotlib?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Soren
My code shows a frame, and I'm trying to set up two panels.. one with
a plot and one with a button.. The plotpanel is just a little square
in the corner when I run it.. ???
My code is as follows:
