Hi,
recently I have the same problem with Matplotlib.
I wrote a wxpython program which can plot a graph when click a button.
When I click the button first time, I got the plot correct, but when I
closed the figure, and clicked the button again, the code crashed. I have to
reopen the program, and the same problem happened.
The solution is that put "import matplotlib.pyplot as plt" before you
plot anything. Then everything works fine.
I don't know why. It seems that when you close the figure, the imported
module or function stop working. It has to be imported every time.
