Hi Patrick,

Thanks for writing! I believe you would be best suited to modifying slightly how you call to_mpl() and supplying your own ax object. So I'd recommend doing something like:

* Construct the figure you want using the matplotlib API, including the axes for the figure but not yet the colorbar. * Call to_mpl() and supply the axes object that you created above. This will plot inside that axes. * Now, add your colorbar as Matplotlib normally would.

Does that make sense? Let me know if it works for you!

Hi all,

does anybody have an idea how to get a colorbar to show up for the zfield (weight=none) with the PhasePlotter? I am using log scaling and I'd like to have the colorbar for the zfield logarithmic as well. I used the PhasePlotter as described at the following page:

http://yt-project.org/doc/visualizing/manual_plotting.html#phase-plots

Just to be clear, what I'd like to have is something like this (just on the right side of the plot): http://matplotlib.org/examples/api/colorbar_only.html
