Changelog history

ProPlot v1.0.0 (2020-##-##)

This will be published when some major refactoring tasks are completed. See GH#45, GH#46, and GH#50.

ProPlot v0.3.0 (2020-01-##)

Deprecated

• Remove subplots.innerspace, subplots.titlespace, subplots.xlabspace, and subplots.ylabspace spacing arguments, automatically calculate default non-tight spacing using _get_space based on current tick lengths, label sizes, etc.

• Rename basemap_defaults to basemap_kwargs and cartopy_projs to cartopy_names (@431a06ce).

Features

• Users can now use figure with add_subplot or subplots (GH#50). This is a major improvement!

• GridSpec now accepts physical units, rather than having subplots handle the units (GH#50).

• Add xlinewidth, ylinewidth, xgridcolor, ygridcolor keyword args to format (GH#50).

• Allow “hanging” twin x and y axes as members of the EdgeStack container. Arbitrarily many siblings are now permitted.

• Use GeometrySolver for calculating various automatic layout stuff instead of having 1000 hidden Figure methods (GH#50).

• Use EdgeStack class for handling stacks of colorbars, legends, and text (GH#50).

• rc __getitem__ always returns the setting; “caching” can only be used explicitly by passing cache=True to get, fill, and category (GH#50).

Bug fixes

• Fix context fatal bug (GH#80).

Internals

• Handle all projection keyword arguments in add_subplot instead of subplots (GH#50).

• Panels, colorbars, and legends are now members of EdgeStack stacks rather than getting inserted directly into the main GridSpec (GH#50).

• Define rc default values with inline dictionaries rather than with a default .proplotrc file, change the auto-generated user .proplotrc (GH#50).

ProPlot v0.2.7 (2019-12-09)

Bug fixes

• Fix issue where AutoFormatter logarithmic scale points are incorrect (@9b164733).

Documentation

• Improve Configuring proplot documentation (@9d50719b).

Internals

• Remove prefix, suffix, and negpos keyword args from SimpleFormatter, remove precision keyword arg from AutoFormatter (@8520e363).

• Make 'deglat', 'deglon', 'lat', 'lon', and 'deg' instances of AutoFormatter instead of SimpleFormatter (@8520e363). The latter should just be used for contours.

ProPlot v0.2.6 (2019-12-08)

Bug fixes

• Fix issue where twin axes are drawn twice (@56145122).

ProPlot v0.2.5 (2019-12-07)

Features

• Much better CutoffScale algorithm, permit arbitrary cutoffs (GH#83).

ProPlot v0.2.4 (2019-12-07)

Deprecated

• Rename ColorCacheDict to ColorDict (@aee7d1be).

• Rename colors to Colors (@aee7d1be)

• Remove fonts_system and fonts_proplot, rename colordict to colors, make top-level variables more robust (@861583f8).

Documentation

• Params table for show_fonts (@861583f8).

Internals

• Improvements to register_colors.

ProPlot v0.2.3 (2019-12-05)

Bug fixes

• Fix issue with overlapping gridlines (@8960ebdc).

• Fix issue where auto colorbar labels are not applied when globe=True (@ecb3c899).

• More sensible zorder for gridlines (@90d94e55).

• Fix issue where customized super title settings are overridden when new axes are created (@35cb21f2).

Documentation

• Organize ipython notebook documentation (@35cb21f2).

Internals

• Major cleanup of the colorbar_wrapper source code, handle minor ticks using the builtin matplotlib API just like major ticks (@b9976220).

ProPlot v0.2.2 (2019-12-04)

Deprecated

• Rename axes_grid to subplot_grid (@ac14e9dd).

Bug fixes

• Fix shared x and y axis bugs (@ac14e9dd).

Documentation

• Make notebook examples PEP8 compliant (@97f5ffd4). Much more readable now.

ProPlot v0.2.1 (2019-12-02)

Deprecated

• Rename autoreload_setup, autosave_setup, and matplotlib_setup to ipython_autoreload, ipython_autosave, and ipython_matplotlib, respectively (@84e80c1e).

ProPlot v0.2.0 (2019-12-02)

Deprecated

• Remove the nbsetup rc setting in favor of separate autosave, autoreload, and matplotlib settings for triggering the respective % magic commands. (@3a622887; nbsetup is still accepted but no longer documented).

• Rename the format rc setting in favor of the inlinefmt setting (@3a622887; format is still accepted but no longer documented).

• Rename FlexibleGridSpec and FlexibleSubplotSpec to GridSpec and SubplotSpec (@3a622887; until GH#50 is merged it is impossible to use these manually, so this won’t bother anyone).

Features

• Support manual resizing for all backends, including osx and qt (@3a622887).

Bug fixes

• Disable automatic resizing for the nbAgg interactive inline backend. Found no suitable workaround (@3a622887).

Internals

• Organize the rc documentation and the default .proplotrc file (@3a622887).

• Rename rcParamsCustom to rcParamsLong (@3a622887; this is inaccessible to the user).

• When calling fig.canvas.print_figure() on a stale figure, call fig.canvas.draw() first. May be overkill for savefig but critical for correctly displaying already-drawn notebook figures.

ProPlot v0.1.0 (2019-12-01)

Internals

• Include flake8 in Travis CI testing (@8743b857).

• Enforce source code PEP8 compliance (@78da51a7).

• Use pre-commit for all future commits (@e14f6809).

• Implement tight layout stuff with canvas monkey patches (@67221d10). ProPlot now works for arbitrary backends, not just inline and qt.

Documentation

• Various RTD bugfixes (e.g. @37633a4c).

ProPlot v0.0.0 (2019-11-27)

The first version released on PyPi.
