        Overview
        --------
        
        
        plotpy.core
        ***********
        
        When developing scientific software, from the simplest script to the 
        most complex application, one systematically needs to manipulate data sets 
        (e.g. parameters for a data processing feature).
        These data sets may consist of various data types: real numbers (e.g. physical 
        quantities), integers (e.g. array indexes), strings (e.g. filenames), 
        booleans (e.g. enable/disable an option), and so on.
        
        Most of the time, the programmer will need the following features:
        
        * allow the user to enter each parameter through a graphical user interface,
          using widgets which are adapted to data types (e.g. a single combo box or 
          check boxes are suitable for presenting an option selection among 
          multiple choices)
        
        * entered values have to be stored by the program with a convention which 
          is again adapted to data types (e.g. when storing a combo box selection 
          value, should we store the option string, the list index or an 
          associated key?)
        
        * using the stored values easily (e.g. for data processing) by regrouping 
          parameters in data structures
          
        * showing the stored values in a dialog box or within a graphical user 
          interface layout, again with widgets adapted to data types
        
        This library aims to provide these features thanks to automatic graphical user 
        interface generation for data set editing and display. Widgets inside GUIs are 
        automatically generated depending on each data item type.
        
        
        plotpy.gui
        **********
        
        Based on PythonQwt and on the scientific modules NumPy and SciPy, plotpy is a
        Python library providing efficient 2D data-plotting features (curve/image
        visualization and related tools) for interactive computing and signal/image
        processing application development.
        
        Features
        ********
        
        The plotpy.gui library also provides the following features:
        
        * pyplot: equivalent to matplotlib.pyplot, at
          least for the implemented functions
        
        * supported `plot items`:
        
            * histogram: 1D histograms
            * items.curve: curves and error bar curves
            * items.image: images (RGB images are not supported),
              images with non-linear x/y scales, images with specified pixel size
              (e.g. loaded from DICOM files), 2D histograms, pseudo-color images
              (`pcolor`)
            * items.label: labels, curve plot legends
            * items.shapes: polygon, polylines, rectangle, circle,
              ellipse and segment
            * items.annotations: annotated shapes (shapes with labels
              showing position and dimensions): rectangle with center position and
              size, circle with center position and diameter, ellipse with center
              position and diameters (these items are very useful to measure things
              directly on displayed images)
        
        * curves, images and shapes:
        
            * multiple object selection for moving objects or editing their
              properties through automatically generated dialog boxes (``plotpy.core``)
            * item list panel: move objects from foreground to background,
              show/hide objects, remove objects, ...
            * customizable aspect ratio
            * a lot of ready-to-use tools: plot canvas export to image file, image
              snapshot, image rectangular filter, etc.
        
        * curves:
        
            * interval selection tools with labels showing results of computing on
              selected area
            * curve fitting tool with automatic fit, manual fit with sliders, ...
        
        * images:
        
            * contrast adjustment panel: select the LUT by moving a range selection
              object on the image levels histogram, eliminate outliers, ...
            * X-axis and Y-axis cross-sections: support for multiple images,
              average cross-section tool on a rectangular area, ...
            * apply any affine transform to displayed images in real-time (rotation,
              magnification, translation, horizontal/vertical flip, ...)
        
        * application development helpers:
        
            * ready-to-use curve and image plot widgets and dialog boxes
              (see plot)
            * load/save graphical objects (curves, images, shapes)
            * a lot of test scripts which demonstrate `plotpy.gui` features
              (see `examples`)
