- When path clipping changes a LINETO to a MOVETO, it also changes
any CLOSEPOLY command to a LINETO to the initial point. This fixes
a problem with pdf and svg where the CLOSEPOLY would then draw a
line to the latest MOVETO position instead of the intended initial
position. - JKS
- The radius labels in polar plots no longer use a fixed padding,
but use a different alignment depending on the quadrant they are
in. This fixes numerical problems when (rmax - rmin) gets too
small. - MGD
many improvements, some cleanup, most notably:
-new graphics types and backends
-layout and legend improvements
-better 3d support
-Numerix support removed
too many feature additions and fixes to list here
pkgsrc changes:
removed all X11 frontend support, leaving just the ability to create
image files
frontends will be added as separate pkgs
Added Mark Athen's 'scale' patch, so that on a scaled axis a circle
looks like circle. See help(axis).
New cursor and span selector widgets
You can use use matplotlib event handling to register a callback after
figure draw using 'draw_event' which calls the callback with a
DrawEvent instance
Use 'f' to toggle full screen mode in the GTK backends.
Steve Chaplin has made numerous updates to the GTK and SVG backends.
Reorganized config files
Updated agg_test.py to demonstrate curved paths and fills.
Upgraded pyparsing and applied Paul McGuire's suggestions for speeding
things up. This more than doubles the speed of mathtext in my simple
tests.

and modified by me.
matplotlib is a pure python plotting library designed to bring
publication quality plotting to python with a syntax familiar to
matlab users. A lot progress towards this goal has been made since
the first release of matplotlib, the library does produce high quality
2D plots. All of the plotting commands can be accessed either via a
functional interface familiar to matlab users or an object oriented
interface familiar to python users, and several high resolution output
formats are supported.
