Create a palette with custom colors, label, and font size.

cm.plot_colormap(colors=["red", "green", "blue"], label="Temperature", font_size=12)

cm.plot_colormap(colors=["red", "green", "blue"], label="Temperature", font_size=12)

Create a discrete color palette.

In [10]:

cm.plot_colormap(
    colors=["red", "green", "blue"], discrete=True, label="Temperature", font_size=12
)

Specify the width and height for the palette.

In [11]:

cm.plot_colormap(
    "terrain",
    label="Elevation",
    width=8.0,
    height=0.4,
    orientation="horizontal",
    vmin=0,
    vmax=1000,
)

cm.plot_colormap( "terrain", label="Elevation", width=8.0, height=0.4, orientation="horizontal", vmin=0, vmax=1000, )

Change the orentation of the colormap to be vertical.

In [12]:

cm.plot_colormap(
