colorbar with 2 different scales

Is it possible to create a colorbar with different scales on
each side?

Example:

a temperature colorbar with celcius values on the left side
and farenheit values on the right side.

If so, how could this be done?

Please help,

Thanks,

A colorbar is just an axes object with some customization of the ticks and labels, and with a pcolor plot inside. You could get your second scale using a technique similar to the twinx and twiny Axes methods; you can then use set_xlim or set_ylim so that the Fahrenheit range on the new axes matches the Celcius range on the old one.

To get started, look at the source for the twinx/twiny methods.
