I'm afraid that I'm still confused and there seems to be not much thing I can help..
You're considering a circle, but you already have your function in a cartesian coordinate. I'm not sure why you can't just plot in a cartesian coordinate? (in other words, what is wrong with your original script?) There is an "set_image_extent" call in your original script (although commented out). Maybe what you're trying to do is simply im = imshow(Z, cmap=cm.jet, extent=(-3, 3, -3, 3)) I'm not sure it would be relevant, but if you have your function or data in (r, theta) coordinate, one simple way is just to use the polar axes with pcolormesh method. n_theta, n_r = 100, 50 theta = np.linspace(0, 2*np.pi, n_theta+1) r = np.linspace(0., 1., n_r + 1) data = np.arange(0., n_theta*n_r).reshape(n_r, n_theta) ax=subplot(1,1,1, projection="polar", aspect=1.) ax.pcolormesh(theta, r, data) -JJ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Matplotlib-users mailing list Matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/matplotlib-users
