Hi, I am trying to plot a colorbar next to each subplot in a figure. In the following example, I create two figures. In the second figure, I try to add the colorbars. Is there a way to show the colorbar next to each subplot. The way I did it, all the colorbars appear next to the last subplot, take away space from it, and all are plotted using the "jet" colormap. Unfortunately, I am not sure how to do this better, and would appreciate hints.
import numpy as np import matplotlib.pylab as plt def main(): # four subplots, no colorbar, so far so good f, axarr = plt.subplots(2, 2) axarr[0, 0].imshow(np.random.rand(5,5)*10) axarr[0, 1].imshow(np.random.rand(5,5)) axarr[1, 0].imshow(np.random.rand(5,5)*100) axarr[1, 1].imshow(np.random.rand(5,5)*1000) plt.show() # four subplots, four colorbars f, axarr = plt.subplots(2, 2) a = axarr[0, 0].imshow(np.random.rand(5,5)*10) cbar1 = f.colorbar(a, cmap='jet') b = axarr[0, 1].imshow(np.random.rand(5,5)) cbar2 = f.colorbar(b, cmap='Reds') c = axarr[1, 0].imshow(np.random.rand(5,5)*100) cbar2 = f.colorbar(c, cmap='Blues') d = axarr[1, 1].imshow(np.random.rand(5,5)*1000) cbar2 = f.colorbar(d, cmap='Greens') plt.show() if __name__ == '__main__': main() ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.
