pyROOT Interactivity and matplotlib

Possibly, reinstalling the ROOT input hook after loading mathplotlib could work:

ROOT.InstallGUIEventInputHook()

This didn’t appear to have any effect.

I also, found this post after your suggestion about inputhooks. It did not resolve the issue either.

Canvas freezes on matplotlib import

Hi, AFAIK, a lot of folks are happily mixing mathplotlib and PyROOT. PyROOT can use either a separate progress thread or the input hook. See whether it makes a difference:import ROOT ROOT.PyConfig.StartGuiThread = 'inputhook'for input hook, or:import ROOT ROOT.PyConfig.StartGuiThread = Truefor progress thread. Cheers, Wim
