使用matplotlib获取xkcd图 [英] Getting xkcd plots using matplotlib

问题描述

matplotlib(1.3.1)的当前版本支持xkcd样式的绘图，但是当我解决方案

要使其正常运行，您需要

• matplotlib 1.3.1(不适用于matplotlib 1.3.0或更早版本)
  • sudo pip install matplotlib --upgrade
• font Humor Sans
  • 从此处或
• 删除matplotlib字体缓存(如 DanHickstein在matplotlib/issues/2269 中所建议的那样)
  • rm ~/.matplotlib/fontList.cache

现在，执行代码，它应该可以工作.

您不需要，就像某些人建议的那样，将后端更改为TkAgg.对我来说，它在'module://IPython.kernel.zmq.pylab.backend_inline'上可以正常工作(您可以通过plt.get_backend()进行检查).

(我遇到了同样的问题，并且至少在OS X 10.8.5上，使用matplotlib 1.3.1和IPython 2.0.0解决了该问题；删除字体缓存对于运行字体是必需的.)

The current version of matplotlib (1.3.1) supports xkcd-style plotting, but when I follow the basic instructions for generating such a plot (in iPython 1.1.0),

%pylab
plt.xkcd()
plt.plot(sin(linspace(0, 10)))
plt.title('Whoo Hoo!!!')

I get

instead of

What am I doing wrong?

解决方案

To get it working, you need

• matplotlib 1.3.1 (it won't work with matplotlib 1.3.0 or earlier)
  • sudo pip install matplotlib --upgrade
• font Humor Sans
  • download from here or here, install (on OS X you open it and click Install)
• remove the matplotlib font cache (as suggested by DanHickstein in matplotlib/issues/2269)
  • rm ~/.matplotlib/fontList.cache

Now, execute the code and it should work.

You do not need to change backend to TkAgg, as some people suggest. For me it works perfectly fine on 'module://IPython.kernel.zmq.pylab.backend_inline' (you can check it by plt.get_backend()).

(I had the same problem and I've solved it, at least on OS X 10.8.5, with matplotlib 1.3.1 and IPython 2.0.0; removing font cache was necessary to get the font running.)
