Hi Stephanie,

Hmm, it doesn't look like there is a messed up pointer in the yt/visualization/_colormap_data.py file to me, and looking at (random site found searching for idl maps) http://ham.space.umn.edu/johnd/ct/ct-names.html it seems like they have qualitatively the same colors for rainbow+white. If you want to try editing the _colormap_data.py entry for "idl39" you might have some luck. It seems from http://yt-project.org/docs/dev/_images/cmap_images__Projection_Rainbow_+_white_r.png that the white is being put at the max value (which gets put at the bottom for the _r) rather than the min value, which is I think what you want.

Let us know if that helps.

Hi yt-users,

I am imagining that this is something silly, but I tried to use rainbow + white, and it seems to me that it is actually rainbow + black? Certainly on the colormaps page those two maps look identical: http://yt-project.org/docs/dev/visualizing/colormaps/index.html?highlight=cmap

Is this actually the case? is there just some simple pointer that is messed up somewhere? Or can someone point me to the white in rainbow+white?

Thanks!

Stephanie
