Tom,
I have made several changes in svn to improve the ability of colorbar to
track changes in colormap and alpha. It works with imshow, pcolor, and
contourf. The implementation could be improved--maybe later. Here are
minimal illustrations you can use with ipython -pylab:
figure(); C = pcolor(rand(3,3)); colorbar(); C.set_alpha(0.5); draw()
figure(); C = contourf(rand(3,3)); colorbar(); C.set_alpha(0.5); draw()
figure(); C = imshow(rand(3,3)); colorbar(); C.set_alpha(0.4); draw()
The agg backend has trouble rendering the "continuous" colorbar with
non-unit alpha; it comes out somewhat striped. Turning on antialiasing
makes it better for small to moderate alpha, but causes similar
artifacts to appear for alpha=1, so I don't know of any good solution.
Good appearance is more important for the most common case of alpha=1,
so I am leaving antialiasing off. I haven't checked other backends that
support alpha.
