Re: [matplotlib-devel] FuncAnimation and persistence

There is no better way to do this at the moment. There have been talk of
integrating the animation interface into Figure objects so that creating an
animation would be similar to creating any other type of plot, with
references to the animation object stored in the figure like any other
Artist.

The basic rule of thumb is, if you are using a constructor, then assign the
constructed object somewhere!

I hope that clears it up!
