When I plot contours in a stereographic south pole plot with a bounding 
latitude and the rounded clipping

Basemap(projection='spaeqd',lat_0=-90,lon_0=180,resolution='l',boundinglat=-40,round=True)

I see that the contours are correctly cut-off but not the contour 
labels. They appear to be plotted according to a rectangular frame and 
not the rounded one (see attached figure).

Is it possible to mask the labels without having to mask the data?

This issue may be related to an older topic:
http://www.mail-archive.com/mat...@li.../msg02892.html
and to a more recent bugfix
https://github.com/matplotlib/basemap/pull/89
but I do not see any other clue

thanks in advance

>From how I understand the FA.FloatingSubplot docstring (I'm running
1.1.1rc), you could try

   class TaylorDiagram(object):
      def __init__(self, refstd, fig=None, rect=(1, 1, 1), label='_',
srange=(0,1.5)):
          ...
          from matplotlib.projections import PolarAxes
          import mpl_toolkits.axisartist.floating_axes as FA
          import mpl_toolkits.axisartist.grid_finder as GF
          ...

          ax = FA.FloatingSubplot(fig, rect[0], rect[1], rect[2],
grid_helper=ghelper)
          fig.add_subplot(ax)
         ...

   dia = TaylorDiagram(refstd, fig=fig, rect=(3, 7, nrfig, label="EM")


FA.FloatingSubplot  docstring says:

 Definition:FA.FloatingSubplot(self, fig, *args, **kwargs)
 Docstring:
    *fig* is a :class:`matplotlib.figure.Figure` instance.

    *args* is the tuple (*numRows*, *numCols*, *plotNum*), where
    the array of subplots in the figure has dimensions *numRows*,
    *numCols*, and where *plotNum* is the number of the subplot
    being created.  *plotNum* starts at 1 in the upper left
    corner and increases to the right.


    If *numRows* <= *numCols* <= *plotNum* < 10, *args* can be the
    decimal integer *numRows* * 100 + *numCols* * 10 + *plotNum*.



Hope that helps,
A.

Thanks Andreas,
Yes I usually do the same, but in this case I am not managing to do it due
to the functions being used. It does not allow me to put (7,3, nfig) inside
the "xx = TaylorDiagram(refstd, fig=fig, rect=122, label="xx")".
This is the code that I am using:
http://old.nabble.com/Taylor-diagram-(2nd-take)-p33364690.html
Do you see an easy way of adding more than 9 Taylor diagrams subplots in
test1 for example?
Thanks again,
Patricia

I always do

   ax = fig.add_subplot(7, 3, nfig)

which works. (in list iterations, make sure nfig starts at 1).

Andreas.

Hi,I want to make a figure with 21 subplots (7 x 3) but I cannot plot more than 9 in the function I am using. 
class TaylorDiagram(object):     def __init__(self, refstd, fig=None, rect=111, label='_', srange=(0,1.5)):        ...        from matplotlib.projections import PolarAxes 
        import mpl_toolkits.axisartist.floating_axes as FA 
        import mpl_toolkits.axisartist.grid_finder as GF        ...
        ax = FA.FloatingSubplot(fig, rect, grid_helper=ghelper)
        fig.add_subplot(ax)        ... dia = TaylorDiagram(refstd, fig=fig, rect=111, label="EM")
The " subplot(111) " works only until 9 subplots, and this function does not allow me to put rect=(7,3,nrfig). I get the error: 'Single argument to subplot must be a 3-digit integer')ValueError: Single argument to subplot must be a 3-digit integer
Can you please help me? 
Thanks,Patricia 		 	   		  

I found out a \! (negative thin space in Latex) works.
xlabel('$m^3\!/d$')

Hello List,

I want to put the following text on a graph, for example along the x-axis:

xlabel('$m^3/d$')

This should show the letter m raised to the power 3 and then a slash and
the letter d.
When I do this, there appears a large space after the power 3 and the slash.
So much so that the copy editor of the journal I am publishing in asked me
to remove the extra white space.

Any suggestions on how to do that?

Thanks,

Mark
