hello, very good video. I just want to ask a little question. Imagine a GUI where you put a button "plot", and you want to plot different plot each time you click on this button, but remplacing the previous plot by the new one each time. I've been trying to do that since yesterday

[@oceanedlfg7531]

like for example the first plot is x**1, the seconde x**2, then x**3 ...

@@oceanedlfg7531 Whenever the button is clicked, I would generate new plot with the create_plot functions and then run the draw_figure function again, which should refresh the Canvas element with the new plot. This should happen in the event loop, when the event corresponding to the "plot" button is fired.

@@TheCSClassroom in my case, it plots the new under the previous one

This should help your solution will probably have to make use of this.

Hello again, I have a graph made by matplot by excel entries, how can i make it show in a window element ? I tried to rearrange my code with the logic from this video but couldnt make it work ? What would you recommend ? Have a nice day.

[@TheCSClassroom]

Basically what you need to do is take your matplotlib graph and place it inside a PySimpleGUI Canvas element. The key to this is the "draw_figure" function, which puts both of those together (in the code linked in the description).

Really nice tutorial, thank you. Got me up to speed really quickly. Any plans to do that live update version?

[@TheCSClassroom]

I'll add it to the list, probably in 2 weeks :)

@@TheCSClassroom Nice video indeed. Did you happen to get around to making the live update version?

@@ericmoulton4309 Not yet, unfortunately, the last few months have been quite busy, but I'll comment here when I do knock it out.

Amazing information, but can this tutorial develop to Realtime chart? thanks before

[@TheCSClassroom]

You can, but you have to use the Graph Element instead of MatPlotLib. It's not the easiest thing to do in PysimpleGUI.
