[Matplotlib-users] Round plot with 'npstere'-projection

2012-01-16 Thread Serhiy
Dear all, using a polarstereograhic projection with Basemap ( m = Basemap(projection = 'npstere', resolution = 'c', lat_0 = 90., lon_0 = 0., area_thresh = 1000., boundinglat = 40. ) one get a square map. Is there any way to make the map round, not square? Many thanks, --
