Color-coding directions.

Open mindey opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

I'd like to have the wind rose diagram with color-coding for directions, i.e., a bit like:

so that we can have a different color per direction, and ideally, colors fusing like rainbow, via fade-in-fade-out like effect between them.

This is already possible? (If so, sorry for not looking deeper. If not, how do you think it would be best to implement such feature?)

Hello, Do you have a specific use case for this? I think you might need to use a different plotting tool - it sounds like it is out of scope for this library - wind roses are usually colored by speed.

@dancergraham yes, I'd like to color dimensions of happiness, check out this video. ;) So that the spectrum (color gradient) would go across the polar angle φ axis , not the r axis. Regarding the r axis, I'd like to indicate "wind strength" in color density (levels of alpha transparency) instead of different colors.

Indeed. Take a look at https://github.com/alfonsosemeraro/pyplutchik, seems to be what you need.
