can wxPython do plot?

wxPython Users

Hi there,

I’m a total newbie to wxPython and Python, could some warm-hearted shed me some light to the following 2 questions?

  1. I wish to plot some discrete data to fit in some distribution functions, can wxPython do this? If so, are there some examples?

  2. Is it possible to link Fortran code with the wxPython plot code as one single program?

Thank you very much!

Yup, sure can. Several different options. There is SciPy for
complicated plotting (large data sets, 3d, etc).

For simpler plots, look into wx.lib.plot. This creates a plotCanvas
which is just another wxWindow.

Yes, however there is no documentation, just the demo: look for pyplot.py in
your python directory.

2. Is it possible to link Fortran code with the wxPython plot code as one
single program?

Most likely yes, at the very worst through a "C glue"

If the fortran code is exposed as a Python extension module then yes.

Someone else already suggested wx.lib.plot, which will handle simple cases. However, if you want something more full-featured, matplotlib is your best bet:

most of the docs give examples for how to use it in interactive mode, or part of simple procedural scripts, but it can also be embedded in a wxPython app just like any other wx.Window. Look for docs and examples about the "OO interface" and the "embedded in wx" examples.

Chaco is also worth considering if you're only on Windows. while theoretically cross-platform, I think it's only being developed on Windows at this point. It's written and distributed by Enthought:

You want to check out f2py for this:

You'll also probably want to use Numeric or numarray, and maybe SciPy.

Hi Owen,

You might also want to look at matplotlib.

See you
