Plots dates on contour plot

Dear matplotlib users,

I’ve been successful to plot 2-D lines with dates in the x-axis directly like:

plot(time,dens[1,:])

Where times starts at 1998-01-11 01:00:00 and ends at 1998-02-06 08:00:00 (633 elements). and dens has 10 elements. Now I’m trying to make a contour plot like:

CS = contourf(tempo, depth, dens)

But I cannot make the dates appear, the plot shows only the “date number”.

Thanks for any help, Filipe

ps:
matplotlib version: 0.99.1.1
backend: Qt4Agg
llinux Opensuse 11.2

This is a bug, now fixed in svn.

As a workaround, try something like this after the call to contour:

ax = gca()
ax.xaxis_date()
draw()

(The draw() is needed only if you are working interactively.)
