Hi,
when I open a new ipython shell (master), withouth any flags, I can set
the plotting backend by:
> %matplotlib wx
Or
> %matplotlib gtk
However, I cannot change it halfway my session:
> %matplotlib wx
> %matplotlib gtk
Warning: Cannot change to a different GUI toolkit: qt. Using wx instead.
If I start the ipython notebook server, I can only use tk. In the first
cell of a new notebook:
%matplotlib wx
Warning: Cannot change to a different GUI toolkit: wx. Using tk instead.
Is there a way to change the plotting backend in an ipython notebook to
something else then tk or inline?
Kind regards,
Vasco
