graph - How to prevent numbers being changed to exponential form in Python matplotlib figure -


i'm using matplotlib in python plot simple x-y datasets. produces nice-looking graphs, although when "zoom in" close on various sections of plotted graph using figure view (which appears when execute plt.show() ), x-axis values change standard number form (1050, 1060, 1070 etc.) scientific form exponential notation (e.g. 1, 1.5, 2.0 x-axis label given +1.057e3).

i'd prefer figures retain simple numbering of axis, rather using exponential form. there way can force matplotlib this?

the formatting of tick labels controlled formatter object, assuming haven't done fancy scalerformatterby default. formatter use constant shift if fractional change of values visible small. avoid this, turn off:

plt.plot(arange(0,100,10) + 1000, arange(0,100,10)) ax = plt.gca() ax.get_xaxis().get_major_formatter().set_useoffset(false) plt.draw()

if want avoid scientific notation in general, 

ax.get_xaxis().get_major_formatter().set_scientific(false)

can control globally via axes.formatter.useoffset rcparam.

javascript - RequestAnimationFrame not working when exiting fullscreen switching space on Safari -

request animation frame stops working when exiting fullscreen clicking on original space's safari window. fine if fullscreen mode canceled escape key or calling cancelfullscreen(). steps reproduce: open https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/769042/prezi/safari-fullscreen.html click "draw raf", kittie appears click "fullscreen", go fullscreen click "draw raf", kittie appears go space original safari was, showing "click exit fullscreen mode", click anywhere, out fullscreen click "draw raf", nothing happens what handling click calling: window.requestanimationframe(draw); which draws on canvas context: function draw() { ctx.drawimage(img, math.random()*500|0, math.random()*400|0, 100, 100); } i checked .hidden , .visibilitystate, updated correctly. tested on osx 10.9.3, safari 7.0.4 (9537.76.4). has workaround/solution other switching old settimeout? this sounds webkit bug 88940 : using reque

Python ctypes access violation with const pointer arguments -

i have api i'm trying wrap in python (2.7.6 on win7) code using ctypes. here's api: client_dllfunc bool clientapi search_exporttoclipcopy(clienthsearch handle, int channel, lpctstr filename, const time_t& from, const time_t& to, const bool* cameras, int length, bool usepassword, lpctstr password, bool includetextin = false, bool excludeplayer = false); the issue i'm having cameras argument; , i've had issue other const pointer arguments well. here's how i'm wrapping api: def search_exporttoclipcopy(self, hsearch, csearch, filename, tfrom, tto, cameras, length, usepassword, password, includetextin=true, excludeplayer=false): exporttoclipcopy = self.sdkdll.search_exporttoclipcopy exporttoclipcopy.argtypes = [c_int, c_int, c_wchar_p, c_long, c_long, pointer(c_bool), c_int, c_bool, c_wchar_p, c_bool, c_bool] exporttoclipcopy.restype = c_bool exporttoclipcopy(hsearch, csearch, filename, tfrom, tto, cameras, length, usepassword, pass
