[Matplotlib-users] specifying marker cycle in matplotlibrc

2011-02-19 Thread Curiouslearn
Hi, If I want to specify the color_cycle for plot lines, I can use the following line in a matplotlibrc file: axes.color_cycle : b, g, r, c Is there a similar specification that can be used for cycling through markers? Something like: lines.marker_cycle : s, o, x, + Thank you. ---

Thomas and Goyo, Thanks for the answers. I am fine with them being coverted to ints. In fact, my ax.set_ylim(bottom=0, top=6000) contains ints and I don't understand why they are converted to floats. I was thinking that there is perhaps another (more correct) way to set tick values. I will either

[Matplotlib-users] basemap only for Earth data?

Dear all, I wondered if there's any principle reason one should not try to use Basemap with other planetary data? I am assuming, as long as projections are used that follow certain standards there should not be any problems, right? Of course any of the methods like drawcountries() and so on don'

Hello, I was trying to change the tick values that show up on the y-axis. I wanted a more finer range than the default. So I added: ax.set_yticks(range(ax.get_ylim()[0], ax.get_ylim()[1], 400)) to my plot. And before this line, I have ax.set_ylim(bottom=0, top=6000) I get the r
