Re: [Matplotlib-users] subplot layout

2016-04-25 Thread Jody Klymak
Yes, the left hand axis is shrinking in the vertical because it is applying the 
aspect ratio appropriate for 15 N and the N/S extent of your data.  Either make 
the N/S extent of the map larger; make the left hand column wider; or make the 
figure shorter.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] zorder taking an array

2015-06-23 Thread Jody Klymak

For my backend (nbagg), the order of the data determines the order of drawing.  
So in the following, the third diamond covers the first two in the first plot, 
but the first diamond covers them all in the second plot.  Perhaps not as 
elegant as a matrix zorder, but can achieve the effect you are after.  

Cheers,   Jody

fig, ax = plt.subplots(2,1)
x = np.arange(3)
y = 0.*x
ax[0].plot(x,y,'d',markersize=52)
ax[0].set_xlim(-10.,10.)
ax[1].plot(x[[2,1,0]],y[[2,1,0]],'d',markersize=52)
ax[1].set_xlim(-10.,10.)

 I see what you are getting at. The issue is that artists are first sorted by

 an at-once operation, it can't (currently) be split out and interspersed with 
 the draws from another artist. This is one of the major limitations for 
 mplot3d, as it would be nice to compose a 3d scene properly so that 
 everything is logically consistent.
 
 I have actually been working on some changes that would allow one to sort the 
 draws of individual elements of a collection, but I still haven't figured out 
 a way to break out the elements with other collection elements in a way 
 that doesn't break the current design or introduce major performance

 This could be achieved nicely if the zorder keyword took an array so the 
 random zorder values per point can be pre-computed, but currently it only 
 accepts a single number for the whole dataset. Would this be a useful feature

Re: [Matplotlib-users] matplotlib documentation from python notebook?

2015-06-08 Thread Jody Klymak
Hi Ben,

My idea was to just make the notebook the “example”.  But nbconvert-ing the 
notebook makes static images that then need to be checked into the repository, 
and take space, so I wasn’t sure how desirable that was.  

It would be fun to have the documentation script accept ipython notebooks and 
run nbconvert on them.  Being able to save state as you work through examples 
is quite nice, versus creating five or six standalone *.py files that then get 
run at build time.  Of course you are adding a dependency to anyone who has 
wants to build the docs.  

Thanks,  Jody

 No, there isn't an accepted way to do that AFAIK. However, it doesn't seem

 It is sort of a way to make sure the examples work and that the image matches 
 the code correctly.

 Jody,
 
 This has come up before and the consensus seemed to be that for the anomaly 
 data sets knowing where the zero is is very important and the default color 
 limits will probably get that wrong.  So long as the user has to set the 
 limits, they can also select one of the diverging color maps.

OK, fair enough - if the consensus is that people who want diverging colormaps 
need to know what they are doing, and the default is only for sequential data, 
then that argument has merit.  I do not look forward to seeing the first 
student talks that try to contour velocity data using one of these colormaps, 
but maybe the results will be so ghastly the naive user will realize they need 
to do something more appropriate.  

However, if sequential is what you have decided, then it is useful to say how 
the underlying data is distributed:  For uniform distributions like those used 
in the plotted examples, I *prefer* C and D.  However, for data like that in 
the movies, which look to be more Gaussian, I would actually prefer B, or a 
version of D that went to black and white to better represent the extreme 
values.  Put another way, I’d use A and B, but most of the time I’d set my data 
limits so that they didn’t saturate as much as they do in the plotted examples. 
 Hopefully that makes sense.

Cheers,  Jody



 I also advocate for users/domains which typically plot anomaly/diverging data 
 sets to write helper functions like
 
 def im_diverging(ax, data, cmap='RbBu', *args, **kwargs):
 limits = some_limit_function(data)
 return ax.imshow(data, cmap=cmap, vmin=limits[0], vmax=limits[1], *args, 
 **kwargs)

 I agree that jet does a bad job with anomaly data, but I disagree that having 
 a diverging colormap as default (or even a diverging argument to anything 
 that takes a cmap value) would solve that. Very often the zero of an 
 anomaly is not at the center of the extrema, and requires creating a custom 
 diverging colormap anyway (see attached example).

Well, I *strongly* disagree with that attached example!  It makes it look like 
-0.5 is equivalent to +1.5!  Unless there is a really strong reason to do that, 
I think that is poor practice as it makes your negative anomalies look far 
stronger than your positive, and that is not the case in the underlying numbers.

Cheers,   Jody



 OT, I recently found a nice alternative to jet

 It takes care of my biggest crib with jet, which is that there is not enough

 Reminder: in matplotlib, color mapping is done with the combination of a

 a colormap; once you have a norm to suit your purpose, you can use it 
 with any colormap.

Though I was hazily aware of norms, I’d not really seen that before.  I 
particularly like the example at 
http://matplotlib.org/examples/pylab_examples/pcolor_log.html

This seems useful enough that a section under “User Guide:Advanced Guide” would 
be really helpful.  An example that displays all the canned norms, and maybe 
how to make a custom norm.  I only found the pcolor_log example by searching 
for colors.lognorm, which I only knew about from your comment above.  There a 
few hits on stackexchange, but those are for specific instances and hard to 
find by random.

I could help do this, but it’d take a while to actually learn how to use the 
norms.

Thanks,   Jody

 
 Maybe this is actually what you are already doing, but I wanted to point 
 it out here in case some readers are not familiar with this 
 colormap+norm strategy.

Or maybe instead of replacing hsv[:,:,2] with dip you scale it by hsv[:,:,2]:

hsv[:,:,2]=dip*hsv[:,:,2]

Re: [Matplotlib-users] sharex with one figure aspect = 1.0

2015-04-08 Thread Jody Klymak
Hi Eric,

 import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
 fig, axes = plt.subplots(nrows=2,sharex=True)
 axes[0].set_aspect(1.)
 axes[0].plot(np.arange(10),np.arange(10))
 axes[0].set_ylim([0,24])
 axes[0].set_xlim([0,12])
 axes[1].plot(np.arange(10),np.arange(10)*2.)
 plt.show()
 
 does not work as I'd expect.  axes[0]'s ylim gets changed so that the line 
 is no longer viewable (= 10-14).  In my opinion, the two calls should work 
 the same, except in the second case, axes[1]'s xlim should be 0-12.
 
 
 If you leave out the set_ylim call, it works.  Given that you have specified 
 set_ylim[0, 24], how is mpl supposed to know what ylim range you really want, 
 when the axis constraint means it can only plot a small part of the specified 
 range?  

It doesn't for me:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
fig, axes = plt.subplots(nrows=2,sharex=True)
axes[0].set_aspect(1.)
axes[0].plot(np.arange(10),np.arange(10))
axes[1].plot(np.arange(10),np.arange(10)*2.)
plt.show()

still curtails the y limit in axes[0], in my case from ~2.9 to ~6.1 (see 
attached).

 Basically, you have set up conflicting constraints, and mpl failed to resolve 
 the conflict the way you think it should have.  Maybe that could be improved, 
 but I warn you, it's a tricky business.  Squeeze in one place and things pop 
 out somewhere else.

I'm not clear what the conflicting constraints are.  There seems to be an 
unspoken one that sharex=True means the physical size of the axes must be the 
same. That constraint doesn't exist if sharex=False, and set_aspect() works as 
expected.  I'm questioning the unspoken constraint, and questioning why 
set_aspect() (or looking at the code apply_aspect()) needs to know about shared 
axes at all.  No doubt there is a use case I'm missing...

I *can* see the issue if we think setting aspect ratios should *not* change the 
size of the axes, because changing the aspect ratio changes the data limits and 
then you have a problem checking all the shared axes to see which one has the 
largest data limits.  Its particularly problematic because I think that 
apply_aspect() is only called at draw()-time.  That seems a hard problem, but 
I'm not sure what the use case is for it, so I have trouble wrapping my head 
around it. 

Thanks,   Jody

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Problem with errorbar and log axis

2015-04-07 Thread Jody Klymak

xerr is +/- relative to the data:

*xerr*/*yerr*: [ scalar | N, Nx1, or 2xN array-like ]
If a scalar number, len(N) array-like object, or an Nx1
array-like object, errorbars are drawn at +/-value relative
to the data.

If a sequence of shape 2xN, errorbars are drawn at -row1
and +row2 relative to the data.

I think you want:

xdat=10**data_x_log
ax.errorbar(10**data_x_log,data_y,xerr=[xdat-error_x_lower,error_x_upper-xdat],ls='',marker='o')

 The axes limits do not appear to be scaled by the values. They are set to (0, 
 1). So, the kludgy way would seem to be to set the xlimits to be (0.2, 1)

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Multiplot with one colorbar

2015-04-01 Thread Jody Klymak
Hi all,

Just to follow up, I wrote the following helper function to put a single 
colorbar to the right of a) an axes, b) a list of axes, c) to the right of a 
gridspec.  I was getting a little peeved with colorbar not working as I liked 
with subplots or gridspec, and this kind of does the trick for me for most of 
my use cases. 

I’m probably not the world’s best python programmer so feel free to make 
clearer.

Cheers,  Jody

def colorbarRight(pcm,ax,fig,shrink=0.7,width=0.025,gap=0.03,**kwargs):
'''
def colorbarRight(pcm,ax,fig,shrink=0.7,width=0.05,gap=0.02)

Position colorbar to the right of axis 'ax' with colors from artist pcm.
ax can be an array of axes such as that returned by subplots.

ax can also be a GridSpec, in which case the colorbar is centered to the
right of the grid.  

Defaults might no leave enough room for the colorbar on the right side, so 
you should probably use subplots_adjust() or gridspec_update() to make more 
space to the right:

# with subplots:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
fig,ax=plt.subplots(2,2)
fig.subplots_adjust(right=0.87)
for axx in ax.flatten():
pcm=axx.pcolormesh(rand(10,10))
colorbarRight(pcm,ax,fig,extend='max')

# with gridspec:
import matplotlib.gridspec 
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
fig=plt.figure()

gs = gridspec.GridSpec(2,2)
gs.update(right=0.87)
for ii in range(2):
for jj in range(2):
ax=plt.subplot(gs[ii,jj])
pcm=ax.pcolormesh(rand(10,10))
colorbarRight(pcm,gs,fig,extend='max')
'''
import numpy as np

if type(ax) is matplotlib.gridspec.GridSpec:
# gridspecs are different than axes:
pos = ax.get_grid_positions(fig)
y0 = pos[0][-1]
y1 = pos[1][0]
x1 = pos[3][-1]
else: 
if ~(type(ax) is np.ndarray):
# these are supposedly axes:
ax=np.array(ax)
# get max x1, min y0 and max y1
y1 = 0.
y0 = 1.
x1=0.
for axx in ax.flatten():
pos=axx.get_position()
x1=np.max([pos.x1,x1])
y1=np.max([pos.y1,y1])
y0=np.min([pos.y0,y0])
height = y1-y0
pos2 = [x1 + gap, y0 + (1.-shrink)*height/2.,  width, height*shrink]
cax=axes(position=pos2)

Re: [Matplotlib-users] matplotlib basemap streamlines plot

2015-03-30 Thread Jody Klymak
Hi,

If your flow is actually non-divergent, so that continuous streamlines make 
sense, you could contour the streamfunction: a decent approximation should be
psi = 0.5*( cumsum(u*dy[:,newaxis],axis=1)-cumsum(v*dx[newaxis,:],axis=0))

Of course this won’t work so well if u and v are coarsely spaced or divergent...

Cheers,   Jody

  Hi all,
 
  tried to plot a streamline with matplotlib. So far it work's.
  But my question: Is there a possibility to avoid the gaps in the streamlines
  (see my picture)?
 
 I think the problem is that the streamline algorithm doesn't make any attempt 
 to optimize for longer streamlines. It's been a long time since I've looked 
 at the code, but roughly speaking, the algorithm optimizes for spacing 
 between streamlines. Reducing the `minlength` input *should* slightly prefer 
 longer streamlines, but you'll see side-effects with lines near borders and 
 diverging flows.
 
 If changing the `streamplot` implementation is an option, one of the simpler 
 ways to achieve streamlines with fewer gaps would be allow the grid of 
 starting points to vary independently from the grid that determines that 
 streamlines are too close. There are also smarter ways of seeding the 
 streamlines, but that would be a bit more work, I believe.

 Are you sure your flow is non divergent? Otherwise sinks and sources of
 streamlines are quite natural. If your flow is divergence free I I
 frankly admit that I have no idea how to solve the problem with the
 (then) spurious gaps.

Yes, this works fine:

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

eels= np.random.rand(12)
averspe = np.random.rand(12)
fig,azal = plt.subplots(1,1)
azal.locator_params(nbins=10)
azal.plot(eels, averspe, label='data')

Cheers,  Jody

PS, easiest is to include self-contained examples.  i.e. we don’t have 
“averspe” and “eels” so its hard for us to see what you are seeing.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Pyplot contour plot - clabel padding

 What i have done:
 
 1.) check out the xlim and ylim after clabel call
 *xmin, xmax = plt.xlim()  # return the current xlim
 ymin, ymax = plt.ylim()  # return the current ylim
 print xmin,xmax
 print ymin,ymax*
 
 2.) use and set these limits before clabel call:
 *plt.xlim(0.0,6475051.47849)
 plt.ylim(0.0,4412688.31468)*
 
 Yes, that's it. Very confusing! I do not understand why that only goes so

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Pyplot contour plot - clabel padding

2014-12-04 Thread Jody Klymak
Hi

Your code wans't included, but try setting your x and y limits *before* the 
call to clabel.  I think that the problem is that clabel makes a space in the 
contours according to how large your font is, but if you then resize the plot 
(zoom in) then the blank space is too large for the labels.  

Cheers,   Jody

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Plotting large file (NetCDF)

2014-09-08 Thread Jody Klymak
It looks like you are calling `pcolor`.  Can I suggest you try `pcolormesh`?  

75 Mb is not a big file!

Cheers,   Jody


On Sep 8, 2014, at  7:38 AM, Benjamin Root ben.r...@ou.edu wrote:

 (Keeping this on the mailing list so that others can benefit)
 
 What might be happening is that you are keeping around too many numpy arrays 
 in memory than you actually need. Take advantage of memmapping, which most 
 netcdf tools provide by default. This keeps the data on disk rather than in 
 RAM. Second, for very large images, I would suggest either pcolormesh() or 
 just simply imshow() instead of pcolor() as they are more way more efficient 
 than pcolor(). In addition, it sounds like you are dealing with re-sampled 
 data (at different zoom levels). Does this mean that you are re-running 
 contour on re-sampled data? I am not sure what the benefit of doing that is 
 if one could just simply do the contour once at the highest resolution.
 
 Without seeing any code, though, I can only provide generic suggestions.

 Hi Ben,
 
 sorry for the few details that I gave to you. I'm trying to make a contour

 The aim is to obtain .PNG output images. Actually, I'm working with big data 
 (NetCDF file, dimension is about 75Mb). The current Matplotlib version on my 
 UBUNTU 14.04 machine is the 1.3.1 one. My system has a RAM capacity of 8Gb.
 Actually, I'm dealing with memory system problems when I try to make a plot. 
 I got the error message as follow:
 
 
  cs = m.pcolor(xi,yi,np.squeeze(t))

 mabs(value))
 MemoryError  
 
 
 Otherwise, when I try to make a plot of smaller file (such as 5Mb), it works 
 very well. I believe that it's not something of wrong in the script. It might 
 be a memory system problem.
 I hope that my message is more clear now.
 
 Thanks for the help.

 You will need to be more specific... much more specific. What kind of plot
 are you making? How big is your data? What version of matplotlib are you
 using? How much RAM do you have available compared to the amount of data
 (most slowdowns are actually due to swap-thrashing issues). Matplotlib can
 be used for large data, but there exists some speciality tools for the
 truly large datasets. The solution depends on the situation.

[Matplotlib-users] View just an angled part of an axis?

2014-03-07 Thread Jody Klymak

Hi all,

I have some pcolormesh data that is in a thin strip along a slope at a (say) 45 
degree angle.Is there a way to set up a view of data just within dz of the 
slope, following the slope?  I would then stack successive views of this data.  

I tentatively tried something like:

pcm=pcolormesh(x,z,Ep,rasterized=True,cmap=jet,vmin=-13,vmax=-5)
rect = Rectangle((1,-8),10,4, facecolor=none, edgecolor=k,angle=-45)
gca().add_artist(rect)
pcm.set_clip_path(rect) 

But that doesn't clip properly.  

Note, I don't really want to rotate the data (that would be easy enough).  I'd 
still prefer there was the sense of a slope relative to the horizontal.  

Thanks for any thoughts...

Cheers,   Jody

Second this - if it takes longer than 30s to run the processing, then I save 
the output and reload it to do the plotting.  If you want the processing and 
plotting in the same file (or ipython Notebook, like I do) then consider 
putting an if 0: statement in front of the processing.  If you want to run it

 That is pretty much what the PR I was referring to does:
 
 https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/pull/1040
 
 It makes it so that the behavior of both plot_surface and plot_wireframe is
 the same in this respect.  So, by default, the rstride and cstride would be
 1% of the size of your data array.  This would make the default for the
 recent example be 1, therefore showing every point.  I wonder if a
 logarithmic default would make sense to better handle large data arrays?
 
 Thoughts?
 Ben Root
 
 I hope nobody minds if I chime in here.
 
 I'm in favour of making the defaults a little more intelligent that
 what is implemented at present, i.e, a constant stride for any
 surface. Any non-trivial scaling law to determine what stride to use
 will result in more expected behaviour than what our users are
 currently seeing.
 
 Could we do better? Could we have plot_surface try and estimate the
 stride based on the 'roughness' of the surface to be plotted? This
 method would grind to a halt for very rough surfaces, so we could
 default to a scaling law in these cases.
 

OK, way late here, but

1) I wasted an hour today before I discovered what rstride and cstride 
were.  Reading the documentation, I still don't actually know what they are, 
except that if I want to see all my data I need to set them to 1. Array row 
stride (step size), is pretty enigmatic!  stride is a term I've never heard 
before except is reference to walking. I see it is used in computer science, 
but to refer to the byte-wise distance between array elements, so not very 
analogous. 

Can I suggest the docs be improved to say exactly what these do (I assume 
either average over cstride columns and rstride rows, or subsample on that 
frequency, not clear which)? Can I also suggest the default is 1?  Its pretty 
frustrating for large a chunk  of your data to not show up for no logical 
reason.  If my data set is too large, I am smart enough to subsample it myself 
before I plot it.   

2) Can I suggest this example be added to the tutorial?  
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6539944/color-matplotlib-plot-surface-command-with-surface-gradient
None of the other examples explain how to colour your surface with data, which 
is what I wanted.  

3) I think plot_surface should accept a fourth (optional) argument C for 
colouring the faces: plot_surface(X,Y,Z,C).  I do this a lot if I want to make 
a 3-D plot, and normalizing C, clipping it, and indexing a colormap seem 
clunky, when the routine could do it for me.  

Thanks,   Jody

 You see, where more than one bar pointing the same direction will be put one

 Turning Bottom into a function call somewhat related to the radii (bar size) 
 if both bars have the same theta (angle). Point is I'm having some trouble

For each direction, just plot the largest one first, and the smallest one last

Not clear how a direction is given as a lon lat.  Do you mean you have a set of

 but I want to display them 
 in a UTM type projection. I believe the directions will be distorted, 
 but I'm not sure by how much.

It depends on what you want - if you want the arrow to point where the wind 
would go after X minutes, then you want the distortion.  If you want the 
viewer to be able to pick off the geographic heading by eye, then simply 
convert your lon lat pairs to heading/length pairs and plot them in the axis 
frame.  See http://matplotlib.org/basemap/users/mapcoords.html for how to 
convert from basemap to the underlying axis frame.

In an ideal world your projection would not be over such a large area that any 
of this matters - if your vector is off by 1 degree, who will be able to tell 
in a plot?

[Matplotlib-users] native latex rendering:

2013-04-01 Thread Jody Klymak

Hi All,

rc('text', usetex=False)
plot(arange(1,50))
title(' Boo Whoo')
xlabel('$t\ [m^2s^{-1}]$')

Works OK, except the x label is typeset in a different font than the rest due 
to the latex 

rc('text', usetex=False)
rc('text.latex',preamble=\usepackage{cmbright})
plot(arange(1,50))
title(' Boo Whoo')
xlabel('$t\ [m^2s^{-1}]$')

Looks pretty good, though I prefer the default fonts, but it takes a long time 
for all the rendering.  

Is there a better solution to the first case that makes the fonts look more 
consistent?  

Thanks,   Jody

Re: [Matplotlib-users] pcolormesh and clim?

2013-03-28 Thread Jody Klymak
Hi Eric,

The docs seem to indicate clim is an acceptable kwarg, hence my confusion...

http://matplotlib.org/api/pyplot_api.html?highlight=pcolormesh#matplotlib.pyplot.pcolormesh

Thanks,  Jody

 There is no clim kwarg, only a clim pyplot function.  You can do this, 
 though:
 
 pcolormesh(..., vmin=-1, vmax=1)

 #clim((-1.,1.))
 
 Doesn't seem to work, where as

 clim((-1.,1.))
 
 does work.  Is this a bug or am I misunderstanding clim in the context of 
 pcolormesh?

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Squashed axes with AxesGrid

2013-03-22 Thread Jody Klymak
...and did aspect=False not give you what you want?  

From what I can see 
http://matplotlib.org/mpl_toolkits/axes_grid/users/overview.html#axes-grid1

contradicts itself, and the chart is correct and the description below 
incorrect.

FWIW, I would expect the default to be False as well, but who am I to say?

 JJ suggested Grid and that fixes the scaling problems.
 
 I realized that using just plain Grid doesn't give me the nice controls

 script and emailed it back out. That did include AxesGrid.
 
 According to the manual ( 
 http://matplotlib.org/mpl_toolkits/axes_grid/users/overview.html#axes-grid1

 By default (False), widths and heights of axes in the grid are scaled 
 independently. If True, they are scaled according to their data limits 
 (similar to aspect parameter in mpl).
 
 Which I read as it should scale the widths and heights should not be 
 squashed. But what Ben is telling me (thanks for the explanation) is 
 that isn't true. Seems like there is something simple I am just missing.

 You used AxesGrid again, not Grid.  AxesGrid implicitly applies an
 aspect='equal' to the subplots.  This means that a unit of distance on
 the x-axis takes the same amount of space as the same unit of distance
 on the y-axis.  In your example, the x axis goes from 0 to 25, while
 the y-axis goes from 0 to 8.  When aspect='equal', the y-axis will
 then be about a third the size of the x-axis, because the y-limits are
 about a third the size of the x-limits.

[Matplotlib-users] matching axes lengths after calls to set_aspect and colorbar

2013-03-07 Thread Jody Klymak
Hi All,

I want to have two axes have the same xlimits and the same length of the x 
axis.  However, I'd also like for the first axis to be plotted at a certain 
aspect ratio (its geographic if anyone is interested).  

The following two tries do not work, because the bounds stay the same after 
set_aspect.  

I'm sure I'm just missing some other call to the axes (or axis?) class.  Is 
there someway at getting at the underlying length of the actual axis, not its 
whole bounding box?

Thanks,   Jody

# this basically has no effect
ax=subplot(2,1,1)
plot(arange(0,10),arange(0,10)*3)
ax.set_aspect(0.7)
pp = ax.get_position().bounds

axn=subplot(2,1,2)
plot(arange(0,10),rand(10))
ppn = axn.get_position().bounds
print pp
print ppn
axn.set_position([pp[0],ppn[1],pp[2],ppn[3]])

# Or, this zooms in on subplot 1, which is of course not what I want

ax=subplot(2,1,1)
plot(arange(0,10),arange(0,10)*3)
ax.set_aspect(0.7)
pp = ax.get_position().bounds

axn=subplot(2,1,2,sharex=ax)
plot(arange(0,10),rand(10))
ppn = axn.get_position().bounds
print pp
print ppn
axn.set_position([pp[0],ppn[1],pp[2],ppn[3]])

Hi Eric,

On Mar 7, 2013, at  14:42 PM, Eric Firing efir...@hawaii.edu wrote:

 I think there is a simpler way.  Does this do what you want?
 
 fig, axs = plt.subplots(nrows=2, sharex=True)

 axs[1].plot(np.random.rand(7))

 Note that when you set the aspect, it is not applied until there is a 
 draw() operation.

Not quite, but the fact that I need to call get_position after a draw() call 
does help.

The below works, though simpler ways are very welcome.  Your method zoomed out 
the first plot's ylimits rather than shrunk the second plot's x axis size, 
which isn't what I want if the first plot is geographic.

 You can overlay contours on the pcolormesh image by simply using the 
 plt.contour() function after the pcolormesh() call.  It allows you to control 
 which levels to contour and you can specify the attributes of those contours 
 like the color or thickness.  Note that unlike Matlab, you don't have to call 
 hold on between plots.  By default, matplotlib will hold.
 
 I hope that helps!

Perhaps you could include some code that illustrates what you are trying to do? 
 I'm confused if you are trying to do something simple and are just going about 
it the wrong way, or if you are doing something hard. 

If I do 

ax=axes()
ax.plot(arange(1.,10.))
xticks(range(0,10,2))
yticks(range(0,10,2))

I get ticks every 2 points.

[Matplotlib-users] rasterized colorbar

Hi all,

So I figured out the magic of rasterized=True, which is *really* helpful!

However, the colorbar doesn't seem to accept rasterized=True, so there are

get the colorbar colors rasterized?

Thanks Jody

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Options for speeding up matplotlib, spectrogram with log scale axis, etc.

2012-10-09 Thread Jody Klymak
Hi Eric,

  The pcolormesh docstring notes that it is 
 much faster than pcolor; the pcolor docstring probably should refer 
 people to pcolormesh, since matlab users are likely to go straight to 
 pcolor without realizing that they should be using pcolormesh.

I'd agree with this.  pcolormesh is not even in the See Also, and there is no 
warning about the effciency of pcolor. 

I'd even go so far as to suggest that pcolor be deprecated so new users are 
more likely to find pcolormesh.  

Anyway, thanks for the pointer!

Cheers,   Jody

 functions in a custom module that set the defaults, eg
 
 def set_pub():
 rc('font', weight='bold')# bold fonts are easier to see
 
 Then as you are working interactively, you just need to do
 
 set_pub()
 
 
 Which I thought was great, because I'd like to have some presets for 
 different journals.  However, saving the def into a file (jmkfigure.py) and 
 calling 
 
 from jmkfigure import *
 
 set_pub()
 
 yields the error: NameError: global name 'rc' is not defined 
 
 I tried importing matplotlib and rc into jmkfigure.py, but to no avail.  
 
 I appreciate this is a scoping issue with python, but I can't figure out how 
 to set rc from within an external module.
 
 Thanks for any help,
 
 Cheers,   Jody

Re: [Matplotlib-users] python question from matlab user

2012-09-08 Thread Jody Klymak

 
 This is one of the big differences between python and matlab: in matlab, 
 if an m-file has changed within a session, the change is immediately 
 effective. The python import statement is very different. 

Gotchya, thanks.  

So, while I'm being a bother:

in Matlab, I often organize data in structures as:

adcp.time [1xN]
adcp.z  [Mx1]
adcp.u  [MxN]

where time is the x-axis, z the z-axis and u an array of values at each depth 
and time (an example chosen after Eric's heart).  

What is the recommended way to represent this in python?  I see the info about 
numpy structured arrays.  Is that it?  It also seems that Mx1 arrays are hard 
in python.  It also seems you need to preallocate the whole array, which isn't 
very flexible compared to how you can do it in Matlab.  Am I missing something?

Thanks,   Jody



 
 
 Sorry for the chatter, and thanks for the pointers..
 Cheers,   Jody

 Hi all,
 
 Thats what I thought too:
 
 I have: jmkfigure.py:
 
 ===
 from pylab import *
 
 def jmkfigure():
rc('figure',figsize=(3+3/8,8.5/2),dpi=96)
rc('font',size=9);
 ===
 
 and test.py:
 
 =
 from pylab import *
 
 from jmkfigure import *
 
 jmkfigure()
 figure(1)
 plot([1,2,3]);
 
 show()
 ==
 
 run test.py
 
 yields a traceback ending w/:
 
 ===
 Users/jklymak/teaching/Phy411/project/jmkfigure.py in jmkfigure()
  1 from pylab import *
  2
  3 def jmkfigure():
  4 rc('figure',figsize=(3+3/8,8.5/2),dpi=96)
  5 rc('font',size=9);
 
 NameError: global name 'rc' is not defined
 
 
 Same error if I just import rc from matplot lib
 
 Is it some strange set up problem?  If I put the same def in test.py
 it works fine...
 
 Thanks,  Jody

 in your jmkfile.py you should have

[Matplotlib-users] python question from matlab user

2012-09-07 Thread Jody Klymak

Hi All,

Sorry to ask a dumb python newbie question, but the problem arose while reading 
the matplotlib documentation, and an hour or so on the internet didnt' help, so 
I felt it was fair-ish game to post here. 

In http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/pylab_examples/customize_rc.html 
it says:

If you like to work interactively, and need to create different sets
of defaults for figures (eg one set of defaults for publication, one
set for interactive exploration), you may want to define some
functions in a custom module that set the defaults, eg

Then as you are working interactively, you just need to do

 set_pub()


Which I thought was great, because I'd like to have some presets for different 
journals.  However, saving the def into a file (jmkfigure.py) and calling 

from jmkfigure import *
