Hi @NikosAlexandris, really sorry for the late reply! Just a note that PyGMT's If your ✨ feature request is related to supporting In the meantime, I'm working on
Yes, GMT is the product of ~30 years of work! Most of the functionality is there already, and I guess it's up to us to make it usable for the masses 🙂 |
I think the plan is to move to just grid or image input for grdview -G rather than red, green, and blue bands. That said, depending on your viewpoint passing in separate RGB bands to My opinion is that it would be worth adding this feature to PyGMT if someone has time to implement it regardless of the plan for GenericMappingTools/gmt#5631. I do not think that GenericMappingTools/gmt#5631 will be resolved quickly, passing individual bands can be easier than making the region of the image perfect in order to work with grdview, and we could still support passing |
An idea: add a
drape_input=
optionpygmt.Figure.grdview()
-- this relates to the discussions in GenericMappingTools/gmt#5631. Perhaps something likedrape_red=
