I was (and am) aware of this problem, this is what I meant when I wrote "I should have overridden make_image". That's exactly the point: there are two ways to make the image: one using Agg and fancy interpolations, the other one to use the backend and have the interpolation "none". The former is done by make_image, the latter by _draw_unsampled_image. It would have been correct for me to override make_image, unfortunately this was not possible since make_image only makes the image, it is then drawn by _AxesImageBase.draw, which unfortunately is not flexible enough, as it does not allow for the image to be drawn elsewhere than the origin of the axes, which is not necessarily what I want. This is why I abused _draw_unsampled_image. I am aware that this is an abuse, but my code was only inteded as demonstration code. I don't know where to go from here. We could: - make make_image actually draw the image. This would be a break in the API. - introduce a new method (_draw_sampled_image seems like a good name) that does that. That indirectly changes the API since make_image won't be called anymore, overriding it doesn't make a difference anymore. - Rewrite matplotlib from scratch in Java (just kidding) I'm looking forward to your ideas.
