[pyngl-talk] contour path coordinates

[Fearon, Dr. Matthew, Contractor, Code 7533]

Hi PyNGL users,

I was curious if it is possible to capture the contour paths (the
coordinates of them) after a plot has been made in Ngl (I pasted some code
below)? The equivalent in matplotlib would be the following. 

Thanks for the help,

Matt

 

 

matplotlib

clevels = [2]

cn = plt.contour(lon2d,lat2d,temp, levels=clevels)

 

for i in cn.collections:

    #loop over all contours per level

    for contour_path in i.get_paths():

 

  

 

Ngl

  cnres.cnFillOn                   = True

    #cnres.cnFillMode                 = "RasterFill"

    cnres.cnLinesOn                  = False

    cnres.cnLineLabelsOn             = False

    cmap                             =
Ngl.read_colormap_file("./tpw_rgb.txt")

    cnres.cnFillPalette              = cmap

    cnres.cnLevelSelectionMode       = "ManualLevels"

    cnres.cnMaxLevelValF             = 70.

    cnres.cnMinLevelValF             = 2.

    cnres.cnLevelSpacingF            = 2

    cnres.lbAutoManage               = False

    cnres.pmLabelBarWidthF           = 0.018

    cnres.lbLabelFontHeightF         = 0.009

    cnres.lbLabelStride              = 2

    contour_plot                     = Ngl.contour(wks,cvar,cnres)

 

 

    print contour_plot.ncontour

    print dir(contour_plot)
