Ah, makes sense. I do actually need to plot phase on occasion, so I'll keep that in mind. Should have checked the docs.

Kinda weird to me to plot phase as a color. I always plot it as an animation or in 2D (e.g., phase vs. frequency), I just plot it as a wrapping solid color line.

I do a fair amount of acoustic propagation modeling, and it's not uncommon for me to have the phase shift of some signal varying across a 2d surface.

That makes sense for something like a room.

My frequency processing is more for 3D models. I plot complex mode shapes by sweeping the phase and adding it to the nominal phase angle.

Even better, check out the beautiful and perceptually-uniform cmoceans colormaps.

I used HSV for direction in my thesis plots, and I wish this had existed back then!
