[Paraview] Python view

[Cory Quammen]

Hi Adam,

I am running the exact same version of ParaView (my About box has the same
contents as yours), so this is a little bit puzzling.

Could you try two things:

1). Run ParaView, create a Python View, then enter this script:

import matplotlib

print matplotlib.__file__


import matplotlib.backends

print matplotlib.backends.__file__


import matplotlib.backends.backend_agg

print matplotlib.backends.backend_agg.__file__


Please report what the Output Messages window says.


2). Open the contents of your ParaView Mac bundle (right-click, "Show
Package Contents"), open up Contents -> Python -> matplotlib -> backends.
Please let me know if you see a backend_agg.py file in there.


Thanks,

Cory
