How to take user input in matplotlib?

Question

Is there any way of getting some input from a user in matplotlib? For example, a drop down list or a text box? What alternatives are there?

If there isn't anything, what would be the easiest way of displaying data based on what a user's input would be?

This could be a very very WIDESPREAD answer...

What exactly do you mean when you say "input from user?"

if you are just talking about a textbox and an okay button then

raw_input('Enter your text')

If you're wanting something a bit more sophisticated and controllable I suggest looking into the Tkinter tools and creating your own GUI where you can create things like combo boxes, checkboxes, entry widgets, popup boxes, and a lot more.

if this doesn't exactly answer what you are asking please post an example of your code then add something like
