Only the “native” colormaps are strictly part of QPlot. The “sequential,” “diverging,” “cyclic,” “qualitative,” and “misc” colormaps are from Matplotlib. The “plotly,” “carto,” “cmocean,” and “colorbrewer” colormaps are from plotly. The “cet” colormaps are from colorcet. Non-native colormaps are only available if the respective libraries are installed on your computer. For copyright information on non-native colormaps, please refer to matplotlib.org, plotly.com, and colorcet.

In a few instances, multiple families offer like-named colormaps. In that case, you can prefix the name with the family in GET and SET, e.g., “cm = qp.get("cet.rainbow")”.

Colormaps from other sources can also be used with QPlot. Excellent colormaps are provided, e.g., by the CMasher, cmcrameri, and cmyt projects. See also lut().
