Seaborn允许定义包含多种颜色的调色板,适用于多行图表。但是,当将调色板设置为多种颜色时,只会使用前六种颜色,之后颜色将循环使用,从而难以区分线条。这可以通过显式调用调色板来覆盖,但这不方便。有没有办法强制Seaborn电流调色板不要回收颜色,当超过6个定义?Seaborn调色板 - 防止颜色回收

实施例:

from matplotlib import pyplot as plt 
import pandas as pd 
import seaborn as sb 

# Define a palette with 8 colors 
cmap = sb.blend_palette(["firebrick", "palegreen"], 8) 
sb.palplot(cmap) 

palette with 6 colors

# Set the current palette to this; only 6 colors are used 
sb.set_palette(cmap) 
sb.palplot(sb.color_palette()) 

palette with 6 colors

df = pd.DataFrame({x:[x*10, x*10+5, x*10+10] for x in range(8)}) 
fig, (ax1, ax2) = plt.subplots(2,1,figsize=(4,6)) 
# Using the current palette, colors repeat 
df.plot(ax=ax1) 
ax1.legend(bbox_to_anchor=(1.2, 1)) 
# using the palette that defined the current palette, colors don't repeat 
df.plot(ax=ax2, color=cmap) 
ax2.legend(bbox_to_anchor=(1.2, 1)) ;

闻起来像一个seaborn错误给我。 – tacaswell 2014-10-10 14:08:27

我也是,但我不想做出假设 – iayork 2014-10-10 14:11:58

实际上,我不这么认为:http://web.stanford.edu/~mwaskom/software/seaborn/generated/seaborn.color_palette.html它看起来像它正在做它应该做的事情,它只是令人讨厌。 – tacaswell 2014-10-10 14:13:37

溶液(T汉克斯@tcaswell的指针):设置调色板显式地使用所有的颜色:

# Setting the palette using defaults only finds 6 colors 
sb.set_palette(cmap) 
sb.palplot(sb.color_palette()) 
sb.palplot(sb.color_palette(n_colors=8)) 

# but setting the number of colors explicitly allows it to use them all 
sb.set_palette(cmap, n_colors=8) 
# Even though unless you explicitly request all the colors it only shows 6 
sb.palplot(sb.color_palette()) 
sb.palplot(sb.color_palette(n_colors=8)) 

enter image description here enter image description here enter image description here enter image description here

# In a chart, the palette now has access to all 8 
fig, ax1 = plt.subplots(1,1,figsize=(4,3)) 
df.plot(ax=ax1) 
ax1.legend(bbox_to_anchor=(1.2, 1)) ;
