It looks like Markus is trying to use the API, so rather than suggest the pyplot colorbar method, I suggest using the figure instance method. Markus the pyplot method plt.colorbar is a thin wrapper around the figure method fig.colorbar -- see also: http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/faq/usage_faq.html#matplotlib-pylab-and-pyplot-how-are-they-related http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/figure_api.html#matplotlib.figure.Figure.colorbar It may be a good idea and refer to the return value of fig.add_subplot as "ax" or something that, rather than "plot1" because add_subplot returns an Axes instance and thus ax is a better mnemonic; see http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/figure_api.html#matplotlib.figure.Figure.add_subplot So I suggest something like:: fig = plt.figure() ax1 = fig.add_subplot(231,aspect='equal') ax1.pcolor(xsr) ax1.axis([0, 127, 0, 127]) fig.colorbar() JDH ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ Matplotlib-users mailing list Matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/matplotlib-users
