[Matplotlib-users] Re: Bug in colorbar labeling

[Curtis C. <cu...@hi...>]

Hi all,

I have a fix for the problem mentioned.  In the latest release, subdir
matploblib-0.60.2/matplotlib/matlab.py line 542 there is a bug.  It should
read:

cax.set_yticklabels([tickfmt%tick for tick in cticks])

instead of

cax.set_yticklabels(['%1.1f'%tick for tick in cticks])

so as to take advantage of the optional input parameter tickfmt (format
specifier) for the colorbar labels.  With this change, the colorbar labels
come out fine and adjust properly according to the input format specifier.

Thanks,
Curtis
