Hello, I have gnuplot installed, that I use outside of SciPy with the mouse enabled (I can click inside the gnuplot frame and do things like zoom, rotate, etc). But when I use it through SciPy, the mouse is not enabled. Does anyone know how to enable the mouse in gplt plot windows ? Yann
Hi, to answer your question partially: you have to issue the command "set mouse" to gnuplot (as first command you send to gnuplot). However, I don't know how to do this within scipy.plt. Alternatively, you might consider IPython, http://www-hep.colorado.edu/~fperez/ipython/ which I would highly recommend for interactive work. Just start it with the numeric profile, ipython -profile numeric and then at the prompt do (for example) g("plot sin(x)") Arnd On Sun, 29 Dec 2002, Yann Le Du wrote:

You can send raw gnuplot commands to a plot object like so:
from scipy import gplt gplt.plot((1,2,3)) q=gplt.current() q <scipy.gplt.new_plot.Plot instance at 0x01BE0A80> q._send('set mouse;')

Thank you : it works for me if I first send 'set mouse' BEFORE I use gplt.plot(). I found this thanks to Arnd's email, saying that 'set mouse' should be sent as the first command. Many thanks for that great tip ! Yann

I used some of your infos with Eric Jones infos and succeeded ! The thing is to send 'set mouse' first, as you noted. Thanks for the help ! And I do use IPython, only I use it in the -p scipy mode and I wished to use scipy's gplt command, so I'm happy now ! Yann
