Ken has not maintained this for a while, and is no longer at IIT.
This package has seen little maintainance for years.
However, it has been minimall updated to run with recent versions of Python, wxPython, and Matplotlib. It was most recently tested with:
- Python 3.9
- wxPython 4.1.1
- matplotlib 3.5.2
The demos run without errors.
NOTE: picking functionality is disabled / broken -- it needs to be updated for modern wxPython (and maybe MPL, too)
PRs accepted!

The `wxmpl' module provides an matplotlib `FigureCanvas' with user-interaction features like point-under-cursor and zooming in on a selected area. Support for creating stripcharts, plots that update as their data changes, is also included.
Documentation of the module itself is available in the`reference/' subdirectory. An introduction to using matplotlib with WxMpl is available in the `tutorial/' subdirectory. Scripts demonstrating some of matplotlib's examples with WxMpl and plotting stripcharts data are in the `demos/' subdirectory.
- Python 3.8 or greater: http://www.python.org
- wxPython 4.0 or later: http://www.wxpython.org
(It may work with earlier versions, but this is what it was tested on)
- matplotlib 3.0 or later: https://matplotlib.org/
(Also may work for eariler versions, but >= 0.9.8 anyway)
WxMpl has been tested under Windows 10 and Mac OS 11 [wxPython > 4.0.0]. It has also reported to work on Linux -- anywhere wxPython and matplotlib work should be fine.
The Python setuptools and pip system provides packaging, compilation, and installation for wxmpl.
To install, execute the following command as superuser:
$ python setup.py install [OPTIONS]
Or:
$ pip install ./
For more information about installation options, execute the following command:
> python setup.py install --help
- For information about other setuptools commands, execute the following command:
- > python setup.py install --help-commands
NOTE The packaging system has not been updated for modern standards -- PRs accepted!
