Re: [matplotlib-devel] [Matplotlib-users] Call for new style defaults

2015-07-13 Thread Juan Nunez-Iglesias
Although I agree with Phillip that voting was not super-principled, I also agree with you Tom that it's time to move on. All the above colormaps meet stringent perceptibility criteria and so the vote comes down mostly to aesthetics. As long as they are all named options, I for one will be happy. T

As long as A and B are included as named options, I have no objections to D as default. (From a branding perspective though, I preferred being closer to GNUPlot than Matlab, but whatevs. Show MPL's roots I guess! =) Juan. On Wed, Jun 17, 2015 at 12:14 PM, Nathaniel Smith wrote: > Greetings, mat

Fun activity: watch all 6 videos in a row then watch the text on this email spin and spin. =P Gorgeous! Thanks Nathan! I hope this kills C dead. It clearly makes certain features of the simulation harder to spot. A great demo of the terribleness of jet, too: it looks like a huge mess. On Thu, J

It's astonishing how many different opinions we have! Anyway, first of all, a big thank you to Nathaniel and Stéfan for some kick-ass work. I'm amazed at the perceptual delta results for Parula... 8-O Good to know that MPL will not make the same mistake. Second, my preferences: A > B > C. I par

Fascinating! Can you "unpack" (heh) that error for us mere mortals? In particular: - never seen that "or" syntax before... Is it coercing both expressions as bool, or is it evaluating to left if bool(left) evaluates to True, else to right? - Why do you expect the second expression to work? Is ** s
