Adding plot from plot jl to gtk window julia

using Gtk
using Plots

function plot_to_gtk(plot)
    # Create a new Gtk window
    win = GtkWindow("Plot", 400, 300)

    # Create a GtkDrawingArea to display the plot
    area = GtkDrawingArea()

    # Add the GtkDrawingArea to the Gtk window
    push!(win, area)

    # Connect the draw signal to a function that will draw the plot
    signal_connect(area, "draw", (widget, context) -> draw_plot(widget, context, plot))

    # Show all the widgets in the Gtk window
    showall(win)
end

function draw_plot(widget, context, plot)
    # Get the size of the GtkDrawingArea
    width, height = widget.allocation.width, widget.allocation.height

    # Create a Cairo context for drawing
    cr = CairoContext(context)

    # Set the size of the plot to match the GtkDrawingArea
    plot_size(plot, width, height)

    # Draw the plot onto the Cairo context
    plot(cr)
end

# Create a plot using Plots.jl
plot = plot(sin, 0, 2π)

# Display the plot in a Gtk window
plot_to_gtk(plot)

Option 1: Using Gtk.jl and Plots.jl

One way to add a plot from Plots.jl to a Gtk window in Julia is by using the Gtk.jl and Plots.jl packages. First, we need to import the necessary packages using the `using` keyword. We import Gtk and Plots. Then, we define a function `plot_to_gtk` that takes a plot as input and creates a new Gtk window. Inside the function, we create a GtkDrawingArea to display the plot and add it to the Gtk window. We also connect the “draw” signal of the GtkDrawingArea to a function `draw_plot` that will draw the plot onto the GtkDrawingArea using Cairo. Finally, we create a plot using Plots.jl and display it in the Gtk window using the `plot_to_gtk` function.

Option 2: Using Gtk.jl and PyPlot.jl

Another way to add a plot from PyPlot.jl to a Gtk window in Julia is by using the Gtk.jl and PyPlot.jl packages. First, we need to import the necessary packages using the `using` keyword. We import Gtk and PyPlot. Then, we define a function `plot_to_gtk` that takes a plot as input and creates a new Gtk window. Inside the function, we create a GtkDrawingArea to display the plot and add it to the Gtk window. We also connect the “draw” signal of the GtkDrawingArea to a function `draw_plot` that will draw the plot onto the GtkDrawingArea using PyPlot. Finally, we create a plot using PyPlot.jl and display it in the Gtk window using the `plot_to_gtk` function.

Option 3: Using Gtk.jl and GR.jl

A third way to add a plot from GR.jl to a Gtk window in Julia is by using the Gtk.jl and GR.jl packages. First, we need to import the necessary packages using the `using` keyword. We import Gtk and GR. Then, we define a function `plot_to_gtk` that takes a plot as input and creates a new Gtk window. Inside the function, we create a GtkDrawingArea to display the plot and add it to the Gtk window. We also connect the “draw” signal of the GtkDrawingArea to a function `draw_plot` that will draw the plot onto the GtkDrawingArea using GR. Finally, we create a plot using GR.jl and display it in the Gtk window using the `plot_to_gtk` function.

In terms of simplicity and ease of use, Option 1 using Gtk.jl and Plots.jl is the better option. Plots.jl provides a high-level interface for creating plots, and Gtk.jl provides a convenient way to display the plot in a Gtk window. This option also allows for easy customization of the plot and the Gtk window. However, depending on the specific requirements of the project, Option 2 or Option 3 may be more suitable.
