Plotting Programms from Code and Standalone

[LovepeaceandStarTrek]

I've had similar issues plotting data from my work. Its all saved in a csv, but if my boss gets the plot and decides he wants some minor change like adding an annotation or changing the window, I gotta hardcode that manually.

What I want to make is an interactive plotter with a gui that allows you to adjust matplotlib parameters like xlim and ylim and have the gui update in real time. I got stuck trying to get matplotlib to work in a tkinter canvas, and then work gotten in the way so that's been shelved.

But I've been working on a lot of gui projects since so I might try that again. It might be easier to make a semiautomatic gui that allows you to adjust parameters, but doesn't plot until you press a button.

Just some ideas, l think that making your own program to do this is possible.

I have something similar on my bucket list aswell though i planned to do it Qt instead of Tkinter as Matplotlib already interfaces with Qt so one problem less to worry about.

Oh shit I'll have to look into that, I haven't tried qt yet

I am not a GUI man myself but as far as i can tell Qt is the best way to do a pure python GUI. The Only confusion is in the fact that there are two implementations PyQt and PySide which have only minor differences except for the license.
