[Matplotlib-users] Basemap calls to colorbar() failing
Jeff, Right now, for me, any Basemap example that uses colorbar() is broken for me. I think there's a problem with how Basemap sets the current 'image' so that a colorbar can be automatically generated for plots. The code currently does: plt.gci._current = ret I think the current image handling in matplotlib itself was reworked (at least according to SVN logs, r7494), so that now instead there's a setter function: plt.sci(ret) I'd be happy fix these myself if you're too busy.

Ryan Ryan: I'm off to Australia for a conference tomorrow, so if you could fix that I'd be grateful. I wonder if we shouldn't wrap the old plt.gci._current = ret in a try/except, and use the new way if an Attribute Error is raised. That way, it will still work with old versions of matplotlib. Thanks for catching this. -Jeff -- Jeffrey S.

Trying both sounds like a good idea, since I just noticed this change is only in SVN trunk, and not in the 0.99.x series (which is probably why no one noticed). However, no attribute error is raised when setting the attribute, it's just never used. I'll see if I can come up with something similar that will work.
