[Matplotlib-users] Highlight values outside colorbar limits
Hi, Is it possible to color values outside the colorbar limits in a different color than the colorbar itself. So for example, an otherwise greyscale plot could have the values outside the upperlimit in blue and those below the lower limit in red, so that these points are not confused with the legitimate data points (as they can be when they are just more black and white points as default).

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Highlight values outside colorbar limits
Okay, so using cm.set_over() and set_under works, but is there any way of adding the set colors to the edges of the colorbar?

[Matplotlib-users] Colorbar labels never appear vertically
Hi, I am having a problem where the colorbar labels will never appear vertically, even when their rotation is specified as vertical. As you can see in the screenshot here: http://minus.com/lbOJyOljH this creates problems when the labels are cut off and generally looks unprofessional. I am creating the colorbars with code like: cbar1.set_label(Lifetime [$\mu$s], rotation='vertical') And yet the specified rotation has no effect.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Colorbar labels never appear vertically
I made this standalone script here: http://pastebin.com/AnKeCwiU and this does not suffer from the issue. For comparison here is the plotting function in my program: http://pastebin.com/7xxtPQYb The only major difference is the use of the interactive display in the script, against the use of Figure and the GTK canvas in my application. I am using matplotlib 1.0.1 On 19 August 2011 10:28, Eric Firing efir...@hawaii.edu wrote: On 08/18/2011 09:53 PM, James McMurray wrote: Hi, I am having a problem where the colorbar labels will never appear vertically, even when their rotation is specified as vertical.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Colorbar labels never appear vertically
After some testing, it appears to be caused by the use of LaTeX in the labels which then prevents it from being rotated (but only inside the GTK application). I have no idea why this is only occurring when it is not in interactive mode, but I guess for the time being I can just try not to use LaTeX.
