Interpolation options for spectrograms

[ericthewizard]

In IDL SPEDAS, we have interpolation options for spectrogram figures:

no_interp: if set to 0, interpolates along the x, and y axes
x_no_interp: if set to 0, interpolates along the x-axis
y_no_interp: if set to 0, interpolates along the y-axis

Is it possible to add something like this to pyTplot?

Here are some examples from IDL:

(1) Normal figure

(2) y_no_interp=0

(3) x_no_interp=0

(4) no_interp=0

This has been available for quite a while in the pytplot-mpl-temp package, except that the sense of the options is flipped:

    def test_themis_peef_bins_interp_both(self):
        del_data("*")
        themis.esa(probe='a',trange=['2016-12-11','2016-12-12'])
        timespan('2016-12-11',1,'hours')
        options('tha_peef_en_eflux','yrange', [1000,3000])
        options('tha_peef_en_eflux', 'x_interp',1)
        options('tha_peef_en_eflux', 'x_interp_points', 500)
        options('tha_peef_en_eflux', 'y_interp',1)
        options('tha_peef_en_eflux', 'y_interp_points', 200)
        tplot_options('title', 'Interpolated along both x and y axes')
        tplot('tha_peef_en_eflux',save_png='tha_peef_en_eflux_interp_both',display=global_display)
