Viridis is in the `cm` submodule.
from matplotlib import cm
cmap = cm.viridis

Hi Paul,
I tried to get the new colormap suggestion from you but could not get the colormap package. Where can I get it? google search did not took me to the package/
Is it a development package?
 May I know how to use viridis color map with an example plot? 
Below is an example code from the link you send
'''
For each colormap, plot the lightness parameter L* from CIELAB colorspace
along the y axis vs index through the colormap. Colormaps are examined in
categories as in the original matplotlib gallery of colormaps.
'''
from colormaps import cmaps
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from matplotlib import cm
import matplotlib as mpl
from colorspacious import cspace_converter

 Your
 basemap plot is likely setting the aspect of the axes to
 "equal", so it resizes the plot accordingly.
 Otherwise you'd have a pretty nasty amount of vertical
 distortion.
 When you save
 the figure, using bbox_inches='tight' will trim the
 excess white space from the
 margins:fig.savefig('map_and_bars.png',
 dpi=600, bbox_inches='tight')
 Also, you should try the new viridis
 color map :) http://matplotlib.org/users/colormaps.html?highlight=colormaps#miscellaneous

Thank you Paul,
 Thanks for the tips related to margins and also about colormaps. Is there a way to stop the automatic aspect ratio setting ( though it it distors map in present case ) if I wanted to use that for other plots?
With best regards,
Sudheer

 Your
 basemap plot is likely setting the aspect of the axes to
 "equal", so it resizes the plot accordingly.
 Otherwise you'd have a pretty nasty amount of vertical

Yes, the left hand axis is shrinking in the vertical because it is applying the aspect ratio appropriate for 15 N and the N/S extent of your data. Either make the N/S extent of the map larger; make the left hand column wider; or make the figure shorter.

Your basemap plot is likely setting the aspect of the axes to "equal", so
it resizes the plot accordingly. Otherwise you'd have a pretty nasty amount
of vertical distortion.
When you save the figure, using bbox_inches='tight' will trim the excess
white space from the margins:
fig.savefig('map_and_bars.png', dpi=600, bbox_inches='tight')
Also, you should try the new viridis color map :)

Hi,
 I am looking for a layout as seen in the empty layout attached which is produced using 
figsize(20,8),subplot(1,2,1);subplot(222);subplot(224)
However when I use it for getting attached second figure the layout gets modified as seen in attached figure 2.
fig = p.figure(figsize=(20,8))
ax=p.subplot(121)
ax1=p.subplot(222)
ax2=p.subplot(224)
Can any one suggest a way to get figure exactly as the empty layout?
With best regards,
Sudheer

I've run into this SO question a year or so ago
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19184484/how-to-add-group-labels-for-bar-charts-in-matplotlib
and have recently run into several questions similar to it again. I'm not
aware that this is available in any form or fashion from the matplotlib
main features unless users reuse his code or make their own.
My question is: does this feature exist somewhere in mpl and I'm just
unaware of it? If there's not is it in the planned features list?
I think it's a worthwhile feature to have and from what I see there's a lot
of people asking similar questions already.
Thanks,
Dino

Dear All,
Thanks to what I found here
http://bit.ly/1qJlWkP
I discovered how to plot the convex hull around a set of points
(please have a look at the script pasted at the end of the email).
Everything is almost done,but I have a problem: my "points" are not
really point-like: they are sphere whose radius is 1 and they almost
touch each other.
I do not know how to tune the parameter s so that the radius of the
points is equal to one in the same units in which I measure the
positions of the points themselves.
Any help is appreciated.
Cheers
Lorenzo
