Dear All, Some weeks ago I emailed the list asking how to represent data on a non-rectangular domain (namely a velocity component along a tube cross-section in my case). I now can tell that everything goes as in the example described by Hansen in Matplotlib-users Digest, Vol 14, Issue 13, which dealt about plotting a contour of gridded data. However, when I try the following (rsin_t and rcos_t contain the position of a point on a circle, namely (r*cos(t), r*sin(t)) ):
import pylab #.... do my stuff here to load the data and manipulate the coordinates #pylab.colorbar() pylab.clf() pylab.contourf(rsin_t.transpose(), rcos_t.transpose(), vel_section.transpose(),arange(min(ravel(vel_section)),(max(ravel(vel_section))+0.01),0.01),interpolation="bilinear",cmap=pylab.cm.jet) pylab.colorbar() #pylab.show() pylab.savefig("velocity_on_section.png") pylab.hold(False) Everything is almost fine if it was not for the following two problems: (1)the colorbar contains shows colors ranging from 0 to 1, whereas the represented scalar for the contour plot goes from 0 to 0.76. (2)centered below the colorbar (not at its left-hand side, where there is a 0), there is a number with many digits which cannot be even properly read; I do not know where it comes from, but I would like to get rid of it. Overall, pylab is doing everything I want, just I would like to iron out these last glitches, probably due to something I am doing wrong. Many thanks for any suggestion here.
