Come gestire un evento di Pick Artist MatPlotlib In un QmDiareaSubwindow in modo dinamico?(Esempio dato - parzialmente lavorando!)

Question

Sto cercando di creare un'applicazione QT4 usando Python e Matplotlib, ma sono rimasto bloccato in un comportamento, che non è abbastanza chiaro per me.

Questa applicazione ha un QmDiarea che contiene i grafici creati dinamicamente in subwindows idividuali.Tutto sembra funzionare bene, ma l'artista preleva eventi che sono precedentemente definiti mentre tracciano i dati.Apparentemente il "Pick_event" MPL_Connection viene cancellato durante la creazione di un'istanza QmDiareasUBWindow all'interno della classe MainWindow.

curiosamente, se lo stesso pezzo di codice viene eseguito al di fuori dell'applicazione principale.

Ho scritto una versione semplificata del mio codice per riprodurre il comportamento e forse qualcuno potrebbe darmi un indizio di ciò che sto facendo male.

Cheers!

Answer 1

Questo non funziona:

p = PlotGraph(x,y)
child = MainWindow._mdiArea.addSubWindow(p.plotQtCanvas())
child.show()
p = PlotGraph(x,y)
child = MainWindow._mdiArea.addSubWindow(p.plotQtCanvas())
child.show()

.

Questo funziona:

p = PlotGraph(x,y)
child = MainWindow._mdiArea.addSubWindow(p.plotQtCanvas())
child.show()
p2 = PlotGraph(x,y)
child2 = MainWindow._mdiArea.addSubWindow(p2.plotQtCanvas())
child2.show()

.

Modifica: Soluzione:

Fai questo in setwidgets

.

self.plotlist= []

e questo in plotRandom

.

self.plotlist.append (p)

E questo risolve un altro problema che ho riscontrato:

Aggiungi questo nella funzione on_release

Non tutti i mouseClick attiveranno un evento raccoglitore, quindi non puoi scollegarlo se non ha sparato.

try:
    self._canvas.mpl_disconnect(self._id)
except AttributeError:
    pass
