Introduction
In this lab, we will learn how to use pyplot
to manage figure windows, but modify the GUI by accessing the underlying GTK widgets. We will create a figure with two plots and add a button to the toolbar and a label to the canvas. We will also add functionality to display the coordinates of the cursor when it moves over the plots.
VM Tips
After the VM startup is done, click the top left corner to switch to the Notebook tab to access Jupyter Notebook for practice.
Sometimes, you may need to wait a few seconds for Jupyter Notebook to finish loading. The validation of operations cannot be automated because of limitations in Jupyter Notebook.
If you face issues during learning, feel free to ask Labby. Provide feedback after the session, and we will promptly resolve the problem for you.
