Jiro‘s pick this week isnon-uniform contourf/imagesc/colorbarbyYuxin Jiang.

I discovered this File Exchange entry after seeing aquestion(note, the question is in Japanese) on MATLAB Answers. The user wanted to create acontourfwith a particular color at a given range. There are probably a number of ways to achieve this, including the answer provided by Akira.

This entry by Yuxin gives the flexibility to specify non-uniformly spaced levels, as well as custom colormaps. Let’s take a look.

data = peaks;

First, a normal filled contour plot.

contourf(data) colorbar

Next, let’s create a contour plot where the values between -1 and 1 are gray.

edges = -10:10;% create 20 levelscmap = parula(20);% create colormapcmap(10:11,:) = .5;% set the color corresponding to -1~1 to gray

Then we callcontourfnu.

contourfnu(1:49,1:49,data,edges,cmap,[],[],'contourf')
