I am trying to embed a SVG image within a matplotlib subplot.
matplotlib can only read PNGs natively, but if PIL is installed, it will use it to load the image and return an array (if possible) which can be used with imshow().
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/pyplot_api.html
import Image
filename = "/tmp/figure.svg"
pil_img = Image.open(filename) # PIL image
img = np.asarray(pil_img) # converting PIL image into numpy array
self.axes.cla()
self.axes.imshow(img)
But of course PIL does not support SVG. The error:
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PIL/Image.py", line 1980, in
open
raise IOError("cannot identify image file")
IOError: cannot identify image file
How can I rasterize the SVG file to plot using imshow
or directly plot the vectors using matplotlib?
Thanks.
