Re: [matplotlib-devel] Matplotlib's new default colormap

[Federico A. <ari...@gm...>]

Nice job.

I find your GUI a little bit confusing (new to colormap stuff) but I
like the idea, basically I find it overkill, I would replace the gui
by a plot and a couple of slider widgets something simpler to
integrate without new dependencies.
Do you really need the third 3d plot on the right?
