ColormapDatabase.setitem¶

ColormapDatabase.__setitem__(key, value)[source]¶

Store the colormap under its lowercase name.

If the object is a matplotlib.colors.ListedColormap it is converted to proplot.colors.DiscreteColormap if cmap.N is smaller than rc['cmap.listedthresh'] = 64 and proplot.colors.ContinuousColormap otherwise.
If the object is a matplotlib.colors.LinearSegmentedColormap it is converted to proplot.colors.ContinuousColormap.
