Alex Goodman created CLIMATE-238:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Allow users to set strings for colormaps in plotting functions
                 Key: CLIMATE-238
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLIMATE-238
             Project: Apache Open Climate Workbench
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: visualization
    Affects Versions: 0.2-incubating
            Reporter: Alex Goodman
            Assignee: Alex Goodman
             Fix For: 0.3-incubating


For plotting functions, the cmap keyword argument always takes a matplotlib.colors.LinearSegmentedColormap instance. However, this object oriented approach to colormaps might not be desirable for some users, particularly those who are used to PyNGL and just want to pass in a string giving the name of the colormap.
