Hi there,

I've been spending hours trying to get the colormaps to work, and I am still
having no luck.  All the examples I have found seem to use imshow() rather
than the figure() and plot().  This is a very simple thing I am trying to
do, a 2D x-y plot, with z values represented by a color.

Basically, I have 3 numpy ndarrays:

x - x values
y - y values
z - color values

Obviously, it is trivial to plot the x and y values:

   *plt.plot(x, y, "bo")*

But how to I use the z array to use the inbuilt colormap features?

I've tried things like:

   *plt.plot(x, y, color=matplotlib.cm.jet(z), marker='o', markersize=6)*

But it doesn't seem to work - how do I get this working?

many thanks
Geoff Sims
