NodeBox is awesome for raw graphics creation.

Answer 4

Have you looked into ChartDirector for Python?

I can't speak about this one, but I've used ChartDirector for PHP and it's pretty good.

Answer 5

I am a fan on PyOFC2 : http://btbytes.github.com/pyofc2/

It just just a package that makes it easy to generate the JSON data needed for Open Flash Charts 2, which are very beautiful. Check out the examples on the link above.

Answer 6

For interactive work, Matplotlib is the mature standard. It provides an OO-style API as well as a Matlab-style interactive API.

Chaco is a more modern plotting library from the folks at Enthought. It uses Enthought's Kiva vector drawing library and currently works only with Wx and Qt with OpenGL on the way (Matplotlib has backends for Tk, Qt, Wx, Cocoa, and many image types such as PDF, EPS, PNG, etc.). The main advantages of Chaco are its speed relative to Matplotlib and its integration with Enthought's Traits API for interactive applications.
