Re: [Matplotlib-users] How do I make a Mercator map larger

[Arnaldo Russo]

Hi Martin,

Have you tried to save your figure and check if it does not enlarge your
figure?

plt.savefig("mercator.png")

Cheers,
Arnaldo.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] How do I make a Mercator map larger

Without seeing the code, it would be hard to tell what is wrong. Setting
the figure size should work. I do this all the time myself.

As for converting map coordinates to inches, are you talking about inches
of the display? or inches of the map (as opposed to km or miles)?
