Does anyone know of a workaround for this issue?
It's all a blur now, but I don't think that patch made it in because colormaps were inherently RGB not RGBA. Something similar to that patch was merged in a year ago: https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/pull/660 and attached is the result of running your code on my machine. What is your matplotlib.__version__ ? I think that code only made it's way into v1.2.0 (the latest stable), and was did not make it into v1.1.1 (or anything before it) -- Paul Ivanov 314 address only used for lists, off-list direct email at: http://pirsquared.org | GPG/PGP key id: 0x0F3E28F7
