Thanks Friedrich,
However, my knowledge of python is very limited, even though I think I
understood what you suggested I do not know how to get the shape (of
the figure?) for this part:
>>> fig.set_size_inches(float(shape[0]) / dpi, float(shape[1]) / dpi)
error is:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "blueearth-map.py", line 108, in <module>
fig.set_size_inches(float(shape[0]) / dpi, float(shape[1]) / dpi)
TypeError: 'function' object is unsubscriptable
It seems that it ended up calling a function shape instead of a variable shape.
I'm sending attached the script if you are interested in looking at it.
Thanks again. Filipe.
