PythonXY, IPython Qt Console, matplotlib, draw something not in inline mode -


i'm new pythonxy , matplotlib. installed pythonxy (v2.7.3.1) in default full mode.

pythonxy

i use "ipython qt console" application.

ipython qt console

i draw using matplotlib.pyplot (imported plt). example. when plt.plot([1,3,2,4]), figure display in same ipython console immediately.

plt.plot

if this, cannot add other properties, plt.title, plt.xlabel, plt.ylabel, or more. why? , how can draw figures in window, adding more properties, , making figure not display until plt.show()?

if select interactive consoles dropdown on python(x,y) home launcher, "ipython (qt)" , click either console 2 or cmd.exe button, should run ipython (qt) qt4agg backend allow plot in separate window , apply titles , on. more info see what backend.

what python(x,y) in example above doing launching ipython pylab inline backend different standard backends commands aren't having affect, similar behaviour noted in issue on github. doesn't seem possible change backend once ipython has been launched inline. i'm not sure python(x,y) options set or script called launch item in applications dropdown.

worth taking @ anaconda free python distribution scientific focus , regular updates. anaconda doesn't default load pylab ipython can choose backend after launching ipython.
