Technically, I guess that everything is possible. Now, the immediate reason is that this is implemented through something called a "sphinx directive" [1], and that I have not figured out how to write one from scratch. Thus, what we use currently is the 'plot directive' [2] implemented in matplotlib. Not surprisingly, it is made to work for.... matplotlib drawings. And this is what limits us at the moment. For this reason, when using that directive in Sage we must use some function called 'draw_sphinx' outputs <the Sage object we want to plot> to a .jpg file, then loads that .jpg file with matplotlib. If we can do the same with .pdf file we are good. And if we want something more 'native' we will need to implement a sphinx directive ourselves. I tried, and I was scared :-P Nathann [1] http://sphinx-doc.org/rest.html#directives [2] http://matplotlib.org/sampledoc/extensions.html#inserting-matplotlib-plots -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
