Hi David, I'm also having a difficult time understanding what you're after. Your description sounds to me like a normal image plot or pcolor plot; for example, http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/pylab_examples/image_interp.html http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/pylab_examples/pcolor_small.html If what you're suggesting is different, then maybe you can link to a picture/plot of what you're after. (Or if you can't find anything, maybe you could draw an example of the plot).
