William,
Yes, it would be possible to put in zlow and zhigh kwargs--but why? Why 
 not just generate the contours you want over the range you want, as I 
originally suggested? You can use linspace, or arange, or a Ticker. 
You *don't* need to mask out values that are out of range. You can 
supply a colormap that uses a color you specify for over-range and 
under-range values, if you like; see 
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/pylab_examples/image_masked.html
for an example of this (although most of the rest of the example is much 
more complicated than what you need for contourf.)
Ticker example (untested):
import matplotlib.ticker as ticker
zmin, zmax = 160, 500
locator = ticker.MaxNLocator(10) # if you want no more than 10 contours
locator.set_bounds(zmin, zmax)
levs = locator()
# ... set up x, y, z ...
contourf(x, y, z, levs)
There was an earlier proposal that mappables, like ContourSet, accept 
norm kwargs vmin and vmax to be passed on to the norm when the default 
norm is used. I should look at this idea again. I'm not sure offhand 
whether it is a good idea, or whether it would take care of what you are 
asking for.

Yeah... I'm not sure either. Eventually I just through in the towel, deleted everything and sudo apt-get install python-matplotlb

Hi,
I run mpl from the svn trunk, but I ran into a problem today after 
pulling the newest version (my last update was probably a week ago). 
The full build output is copied below.
I build from trunk using the following commands:
$ python setup.py build_ext --inplace
$ python setupegg.py develop
and my build failed on setupegg.py. To be honest, I'm not sure what 
the second line even does, but in the past, I've run into problems 
without it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The homepage is saying that the latest release is 0.98.6svn, can this

It might not be crystal clear indeed at 1st glance, but once you get used 
to it (as I got used to sm-WINDOW command), it is fairly trivial to 
pre-visualize. And IMHO it would have the advantage of conciseness while 
an easy extension to subplot.

Most probably... but me: I did not catch what subplot2grid(loc=(0,0), 
rowspan=2, colspan=3) should actually do. What would be the syntax for 
the following layouts?

subplot2grid(shape=(3,3), loc=(0,0), rowspan=2, colspan=3)

I was not suggesting just changing the *number* of contours, I was 
suggesting explicitly setting the boundaries. This is almost always a 
better strategy; the signature in which a number of contours is 
specified is intended only for quick and dirty exploration (and Matlab 
compatibility, which led to the overly complex set of possible 
signatures for contour in mpl). When contour is called as you called it, 
it doesn't know or care anything about clim; it finds the range of your 
input data and linearly spreads the requested number of values over 
approximately that range. (Actually, it uses a ticker to do this, so 
contour values will fall on reasonably nice numbers.) I suspect there is 
an unmasked high value that is making the auto-detected range too large. 
What do you get from
print z.min(), z.max()
If you don't set the clim, it is set automatically based on the contour 
levels; so if you set the levels, you don't need to set the clim.
Colorbar gets its information from the ContourSet object.

Hi guys,
+1 for rowspan and colspan. Much cleaner I would say.

The functionality is good,
but the syntax is awful.
Using a location along with
a rowspan and colspan is a
very established convention.
(E.g., consider the tkinter
grid manager.) It is
completely explicit and
simple, even when changing
the extent in only a single
direction.
subplot2grid(loc=(0,0), rowspan=2, colspan=3)
would confuse nobody (or so I claim).

You don't really want 95 contour levels, do you?
Instead of using set_clim, set the contour levels you want, and I 
suspect everything will come out OK. E.g.,
pylab.contourf(x,y,z,pylab.linspace(160, 500, 18))

Regarding this 2nd issue, I appreciated long ago the flexibility and ease-of-use
offered by super-mongo WINDOW command (e.g.
http://www.astro.princeton.edu/~rhl/sm/sm.html#SYN83). Basically, this would be
the same as accepting a tuple as plotNum argument in matplotlib subplot(numRows,
numCols, plotNum) to specify the extent of the composed subplot in terms of
atomic subplots, e.g.
ax1 = subplot(2,2,(1,3))
ax2 = subplot(2,2,2)
ax3 = subplot(2,2,4)
would produce the following layout:
+-------+-------+
| | ax2 |
| | |
| ax1 +-------+
| | ax3 |
| | |
+-------+-------+
or 
ax1 = subplot(3,3,(1,5))
ax2 = subplot(3,3,(7,9))
ax3 = subplot(3,3,(3,6))
for 
+-------+---+
| | |
| ax1 |ax3|
| | |
+-------+---+
| ax2 |
+-----------+
My current naive implementation is the following:
def add_axes(fig, nrow, ncol, extent, **kwargs):
 pars = fig.subplotpars
 figW = pars.right-pars.left # Fig size
 figH = pars.top-pars.bottom
 subW = figW / (ncol + pars.wspace*(ncol-1)) # Sub-axes size
 subH = figH / (nrow + pars.hspace*(nrow-1))
 sepW = pars.wspace*subW # Separations
 sepH = pars.hspace*subH
 axL,axR,axB,axT = 1,0,1,0
 for num in extent:
 assert 0<num<=nrow*ncol
 irow, icol = divmod(num-1, ncol)
 subL = pars.left + icol*(subW + sepW)
 subB = pars.top - (irow+1)*subH - irow*sepH
 axL = min(axL,subL)
 axR = max(axR,subL+subW)
 axB = min(axB,subB)
 axT = max(axT,subB+subH)
 axW = axR-axL
 axH = axT-axB
 return fig.add_axes([axL,axB,axW,axH], **kwargs)
fig = figure()
ax1 = add_axes(fig,3,3,(1,5))
ax2 = add_axes(fig,3,3,(7,9))
ax3 = add_axes(fig,3,3,(3,6))
ax1.plot(randn(10),'b.')
ax2.plot(randn(10),'r.')
ax3.plot(randn(10),'g.')
draw()

The grid line will reappear if you set high enough resolution.
plt.subplot(111, polar=True, resolution=100)
This should be filed as a bug, though.
I guess the current default for resolution is 1. I think this was to
enable to draw a straight line in polar projection. However, my guess
is that it has a side-effect that a angular gridline became a 0-length
line connecting two identical points.

great, thanks!
Note that the Mac binaries are kind of mis-named:
matplotlib-0.98.5.3-py2.5-macosx10.5.zip
That implies that they only work on 10.5, but AFAICT, it is built for 
the python.org python, which works on 10.3.9 and above. In any case, it 
seems to work for me on 10.4
something like:
matplotlib-0.98.5.3-python.org-2.5-macosx.mpkg.zip
might be better.
But it works, which is the bigger deal!
Thanks to all that contributed.

OK. Enclosed. If you uncomment the "date2num" call, it works fine, but 
it crashes as it is.

I wouldn't remove PIL support in imshow immediately, either, but I think
deprecation should be OK. Since Image->numpy conversion is now happening
through the array interface, I don't think there's much call to support
PIL directly anymore. We should make the deprecation warning give the
appropriate hint ("In the future, 'imshow(pil_image)' will not be
supported. Use 'imshow(np.array(pil_image))' instead. Note that you may
need an origin='upper' keyword argument for the latter case.")

I'm not wild about removing the PIL functionality entirely just to
remove an inconsistency. Andrew wrote the PIL support -- perhaps he
can comment.

Possibilities include a LineCollection, or a single line with markers. 
I suspect a single line with masked points used to break it up into 
vertical segments would also work, although I don't know how fast it 
would be. The markers approach would be fastest, I suspect.

Well.. that worked. I didn't tried at first because the docs says it
can't be filled...

Can’t stop the signal.

Thanks Mike,
Actually, I don't want it to be filled, but the wedge did what I
wanted, so I'm sticking with it.

Arcs exist as an optimization to render really large circles and 
ellipses with high accuracy.
 An elliptical arc. Because it performs various optimizations, it
 can not be filled.
If you want to draw a filled, yet partial, circle, I believe you want to 
use Wedge.

Mike
