Colorbar option in captureImage

Post by joleenf »

Hi,

Following the documentation, I tried using "ShowLines" as one of the Colorbar parameters for captureImage. This did not work, but "showLines" does.

Thanks,
Joleen

Hi Joleen -

Thanks for pointing this out. I updated the documentation for colorbar in captureImage to use showLines instead of ShowLines.

Thanks again -

Hi,

Thanks Bob.

Question, it seems that when I was using writeImage, I was able to specify the fontface and fontsize parameters of the overlay tag for the colorbar text. So for writeImage:

"colorbar width=700 height=20 anchor=UM place=UM,0,30 tickmarks=21 showlines=true fontsize=24"

The fontsize, fontface options do not work for captureImage. Is there a way to do this with captureImage?

Thanks,
Joleen

Hi Joleen -

It looks like the fontSize and fontFace keywords from writeImage haven't made it over to captureImage for the Colorbar formatting option. Both of these are erroring as unexpected keyword arguments. These two keywords are valid for the TextOverlay formatting option, though. I wrote this up as Inquiry 2152. I'm not seeing a workaround for this currently using captureImage.

Thanks for reporting this -
Bob
