Yes -- you would need to make a custom shape, and PathPatch or Polygon (if straight line segments are sufficient) are probably the way to go.

[matplotlib-devel] Projections - custom_projection_example.py
Hello, I have been trying to modify the custom projection example (http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/api/custom_projection_example.html) to plot a Sanson Flamsteed Projection (Sinusoidal projection). Such a projection is defined as: long0=0 x = (long-long0)*cos(lat) y=lat The problem is how to correctly handle the: * _gen_axes_patch * _gen_axes_spines As the resultant plot area/plot boundaries is not circular/elliptical like the examples provided. Does anyone, who has played with this projections, or has better understanding of matplotlib provide me with a way to handle this?
