One thing you have missed is the behavior of pylab.cm.jet. If you pass it an integer array, it treats the integers as indices into the default jet colormap, with 256 colors. If you pass it a float array, the floats must be scaled from 0 to 1, in which case you will get scaled values from the

This demonstrates the *solution*--the problem is that scatter() does not automagically perform color mapping for the edge and face colors. Perhaps this is a 'feature', but if so (or even if not) maybe the documentation should be clarified (I figured 'c' and 'color' were equivalent, like other m

I'm trying to make high-dimensionality scatter plots, but I've run into a couple of issues. I'm using scatter() but including both edge and face color mapping; I doubt this will provide a meaningful display, but I'd like to try it and see Unfortunately, passing data arrays to facecolor and
