You need to use the 'imshow' function to display an image in greyscale. You have to turn your image into an array of values and then put that array into imshow with the colormap set to grey. I don't know about how to do a plane fit... On Wed, Feb 15, 2012 at 9:18 PM, wrote: > > Thanks Alexa and

Try using 'xticks' and 'yticks', those commands let you define the location and label fo your tick marks. Example - xticks( arange(5), ('0', '100', '200', '300', '400') ) Where the argument in arange is the number of tick labels you're making On Wed, Feb 15, 2012 at 10:56 AM, wrote: > Hello,
