See examples/contourf_demo.py. The relevant part is this: # Now make a contour plot with the levels specified, # and with the colormap generated automatically from a list # of colors. levels = [-2, -1.5, -1, -0.5, 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5] CS3 = contourf(X, Y, Z, levels, colors = ('r', 'g', 'b'), origin=origin) Try specifying 4 levels; I think this would do what you want (with black for the middle range, for example): levels = [-1.5, -0.5, 0.5, 1.5] CS = contourf(X, Y, Z, levels, colors=('r', 'k', 'r')) Eric > > Greetings, Uwe > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Take Surveys.
