Releases

2.0.0: 2019-06-07

• Remove Qt requirement. Now use Pillow to grab the figure image, and win32clipboard to manage the Windows clipboard.

1.0.2: 2018-11-27

• Force use of Qt4Agg or Qt5Agg. Some installs will default to TkAgg backend, which this module doesn't support. Forcing the backend to switch when loading this module saves the user from having to manually specify one of the Qt backends in every analysis.

1.0.1: 2018-11-27

• Improve setup.py: remove need for importing module, add proper installation dependencies
• Change readme from ReST to Markdown

1.0: 2017-08-09

• Initial release
