ResourceWarning: unclosed file
intest_cpudemo.py
(purely test issue) - Fixed segmentation fault in
test_multidemo.py
(purely test issue, related to test utility moduleqwt.tests.utils
) - Update GitHub actions to use the latest versions of actions/checkout, actions/setup-python, ...
- Dropped support for Python 3.8
- Fixed random crashes (segfaults) on Linux related to conflicts between Qt and Python reference counting mechanisms:
- This issue was only happening on Linux, and only with Python 3.12, probably due to changes in Python garbage collector behavior introduced in Python 3.12. Moreover, it was only triggered with an extensive test suite, such as the one provided by the
PlotPy
project. - The solution was to derive all private classes containing Qt objects from
QObject
instead ofobject
, in order to let Qt manage the reference counting of its objects. - This change was applied to the following classes:
QwtLinearColorMap_PrivateData
QwtColumnSymbol_PrivateData
QwtDynGridLayout_PrivateData
QwtGraphic_PrivateData
QwtLegendLabel_PrivateData
QwtNullPaintDevice_PrivateData
QwtPlotCanvas_PrivateData
QwtPlotDirectPainter_PrivateData
QwtPlotGrid_PrivateData
QwtPlotLayout_PrivateData
QwtPlotMarker_PrivateData
QwtPlotRenderer_PrivateData

QwtAbstractScaleDraw_PrivateData
QwtScaleDraw_PrivateData
QwtScaleWidget_PrivateData
QwtSymbol_PrivateData

- This issue was only happening on Linux, and only with Python 3.12, probably due to changes in Python garbage collector behavior introduced in Python 3.12. Moreover, it was only triggered with an extensive test suite, such as the one provided by the
- Removed deprecated code regarding PyQt4 compatibility
-
Fixed random crashes (segfaults) on Linux related to Qt objects stored in cache data structures (
QwtText
andQwtSymbol
) -
Test suite can simply be run with
pytest
and specific configuration (conftest.py
) will be taken into account (previously, the test suite has to be run withpytest qwt
in order to be successfully configured)
- Add support for NumPy 2.0:
- Use
numpy.asarray
instead ofnumpy.array(..., copy=False)
- Update requirements to remove the NumPy version upper bound constraint
- Use
- Fixed segmentation fault issue reported in the
PlotPy
project:- See PlotPy's Issue #13 for the original issue.
- The issue was caused by the
QwtSymbol
class constructor, and more specifically by its private data object, which instanciated an emptyQtPainterPath
object, causing a segmentation fault on Linux, Python 3.12 and PyQt5.
- Fixed
Fatal Python error
issue reported in thePlotPy
project:- See PlotPy's Issue #11 for the original issue, even if the problem is not directly pointed out in the issue comments.
- The issue was caused by the
QwtAbstractScaleDraw
cache mechanism, which was keeping references toQSizeF
objects that were deleted by the garbage collector at some point. This was causing a segmentation fault, but only on Linux, and only when executing thePlotPy
test suite in a specific order. - Thanks to @yuzibo for helping to reproduce the issue and providing a test case, that is the
PlotPy
Debian package build process.
For this release, test coverage is 72%.
- Preparing for NumPy V2 compatibility: this is a work in progress, as NumPy V2 is not yet released. In the meantime, requirements have been updated to exclude NumPy V2.
- Fix
QwtPlot.axisInterval
(was raisingAttributeError
) - Removed unnecessary dependencies (pytest-qt, pytest-cov)
- Moved
conftest.py
to project root - Project code formatting: using
ruff
instead ofblack
andisort
- Fixed
ColorStops.stops
method (was returning a copy of the list of stops instead of the list itself)
- 30% performance improvement (measured by
qwt.tests.test_loadtest
) by optimizing theQwtAbstractScaleDraw.tickLabel
method:- Suppressed an unnecessary call to
QFont.textSize
(which can be quite slow) - Cached the text size with the label
QwtText
object
- Suppressed an unnecessary call to
- Added support for margins in
QwtPlot
(see Issue #82):- Default margins are set to 0.05 (5% of the plot area) at each side of the plot
- Margins are adjustable for each plot axis using
QwtPlot.setAxisMargin
(andQwtPlot.axisMargin
to get the current value)
- Added an additional margin to the left of ticks labels: this margin is set to one character width, to avoid the labels to be truncated while keeping a tight layout
- Slighly improved the new flat style (see V0.7.0) by selecting default fonts
- API breaking change:
QwtLinearColorMap.colorStops
now returns a list ofColorStop
objects instead of the list of stop values
- Fixed
TypeError
onQwtPlotLayout.minimumSizeHint

). QwtScaleDiv

QwtPlot
: set theautoReplot
option at False by default, to avoid time consuming implicit plot updates.- Added
QwtPlotItem.setIcon
andQwtPlotItem.icon
method for setting and getting the icon associated to the plot item (as of today, this feature is not strictly needed in PythonQwt: this has been implemented for several use cases in higher level libraries (see PR #61). - Removed unused
QwtPlotItem.defaultIcon
method. - Added various minor optimizations for axes/ticks drawing features.
- Fixed
QwtPlot.canvasMap
whenaxisScaleDiv
returns None. - Fixed alias
np.float
which is deprecated in NumPy 1.20.
- Fixed simple plot examples (setup.py & plot.py's doc page) following the introduction of the new QtPy dependency (Qt compatibility layer) since V0.8.0.
- Added new GUI-based test script
PythonQwt-py3
to run the test launcher. - Added command-line options to the
PythonQwt-tests-py3
script to run all the tests simultenously in unattended mode (--mode unattended
) or to update all the screenshots (--mode screenshots
). - Added internal scripts for automated test in virtual environments with both PyQt5 and PySide2.
- PySide2 support was significatively improved betwen PythonQwt V0.8.0 and V0.8.1 thanks to the new

QwtPlotGrid.make
QwtSymbol.make
QwtText.make
-
Added new test launcher with screenshots (automatically generated)
-
Removed
guidata
dependency thanks to the new specific GUI-based test launcher -

QwtScaleMap.invTransform_scalar
: avoid divide by 0- Avoid error when computing ticks: when the axis was so small that no tick could be drawn, an exception used to be raised
Fixed an annoying bug which caused scale widget (axis ticks in particular) to be misaligned with canvas grid: the user was forced to resize the plot widget as a workaround
- Better handling of infinity and
NaN
values in scales (removedNumPy
warnings) - Now handling infinity and
NaN
values in series data: removing points that can't be drawn - Fixed logarithmic scale engine: presence of values <= 0 was slowing down series data plotting

methods to set the new auto size option (see documentation) QwtPainter
: removed unused methodsdrawRoundFrame

Fixed Issue #23: "argument numPoints is not implemented" error was showing up when calling QwtSymbol.drawSymbol(symbol, QPoint(x, y))
.
Added docstrings in all Python modules and a complete documentation based on Sphinx. See the Overview section for API limitations when comparing to Qwt.
Fixed Issue #21 (blocking issue only on non-Windows platforms when building the package): typo in "PythonQwt-tests" script name (in setup script)
First alpha public release.
