Jeff, This "_r" command seems not work well. Let me show you the full line of that color map plot, -------------------------------------- contourf(X, Y, Z, v1, cmap=cm.pink) --------------------------------------
By the way, Jeff, do you know how to make the cmap explicitly defined, like in GNUPLOT, ---------------------------------------------------------------- set palette defined (0.004 "white", 0.17 "brown", 0.28 "black") ---------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you so much! ///Teng Jeff Whitaker writes: > Teng Yang wrote: >> Hello, I have a quick question for you. >> >> I was trying to make a color and contour plot.
