[IPython-dev] Maptlotlib Contour Issue (Bug?) with IPython Notebook

[Phil Elson]

I've just submitted a fix for this problem at
https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/pull/1929. It was reproducible
without IPython if you add the line:

plt.savefig('test.png', bbox_inches='tight')

Interestingly though, there was no error message being shown by IPython,
which I'm guessing was being suppressed by the try..finally on ~L104 of
IPython.kernel.zmq.pylab.backend_inline - I wonder if any exceptions which
get caught there should be displayed on the notebook. That would certainly
have helped in this case.

Cheers,

Phil
