Hi All,
I'm trying to plot evenly grided data to tiles for google maps overlays.
Each tile needs to be a 256x256 pixel PNG image, without any borders.
The problem that I'm having is that the leftmost column of the resultant PNG
image (saved using FigureCanvasAgg.print_figure) is transparent.
My real code uses basemap because the output has to be in the mercator
projection, but the sample code below is simplified to exclude it. You can
view the sample image that is produced at this address:
http://earth.usc.edu/ftp/kmilner/trans_test.png
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Kevin

canvas = FigureCanvas(fig)
fig.figurePatch.set_alpha(0.0)
ax_bounds = [0, 0, 1, 1]
ax = fig.add_axes(ax_bounds, axisbg=(1.0,1.0,0.0,0.0),
frameon=False )
inches = pixels / dpi
fig.set_size_inches(256 / dpi, 256 / dpi)
num = 31
z = numpy.empty( (num, num) )
for x in xrange(num):
for y in xrange(num):
z[x, y] = x * y
x, y = numpy.meshgrid( range(num), range(num) )
image = ax.pcolor(x, y, z)
image = ax.contourf(x, y, z)
canvas.print_figure("/tmp/trans_test.png", dpi=dpi)
