And

import matplotlib as mpl
f=mpl.figure(figsize(5,5),dpi=100)
sbplt=f.add_subplot(111)

...

while 1:
   x1,x2=sbplt.get_xlim()
   y1,y2=sbplt.get_ylim()
   sbplt.set_xlim(x1+0.1,x2+0.1)
   sbplt.set_ylim(y1+0.1,y2+0.1)
   f.canvas.draw()


this works pretty well on Linux, but the movement on Windows is slow
and therefore it is not smooth.

Any advice for better smoothness?
