Re: [Matplotlib-users] could I get rid of the contour of Antarctica by using Basemap?
Hi Sterling and Alex, thanks to both of you. I followed what proposed by you Alex and it's working perfectly. my version of matplotlib is 1.2.0 and I don't want to upgrade before I submit the MS and so I pick up the code of "get_segments" method from the github and put it in my 1.2.0 matplotlib and it works. I wish everybody a good new year.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] could I get rid of the contour of Antarctica by using Basemap?
A quick apology for a typo in my previous message, the method in question is drawcoastlines(), not drawcontinents(). The code snippet should still be correct though!

Re: [Matplotlib-users] could I get rid of the contour of Antarctica by using Basemap?
Chao, I know nothing of the Basemap toolkit so I can't comment on the removal of continents, but presumably the text command you are using takes some keywords to set the properties of the bounding box. Try setting the background of the bounding box to white so that your words show up cleanly. Feel free to let me know that I'm barking up the wrong tree. -Sterling On Dec 30, 2013, at 3:46PM, Chao YUE wrote: > Dear all, > > Happy new year! > > I am using Basemap toolkit to make some maps, I would like to > write something at the bottom of the map, whose position is now > taken by the contourf of Antarctica.

[Matplotlib-users] could I get rid of the contour of Antarctica by using Basemap?
Dear all, Happy new year! I am using Basemap toolkit to make some maps, I would like to write something at the bottom of the map, whose position is now taken by the contourf of Antarctica. Is there a way I can keep contours of other continents but suppressing the one for antarctica? I attached showing why I would like to have this. thanks for any help, Chao -- *** Chao YUE Laboratoire des Sciences du Climat et de l'Environnement (LSCE-IPSL) UMR 1572 CEA-CNRS-UVSQ Batiment 712 - Pe 119 91191 GIF Sur YVETTE Cedex Tel: (33) 01 69 08 29 02; Fax:01.69.08.77.16 <>-- Rapidly troubleshoot problems before they affect your business.
