How to group/separate? about joypy HOT 1 CLOSED

Hi,

not sure what is your expected result. I would suggest looking at the notebook with examples, in the last few examples (about colors).
Currently, if you use both the by and colormap argument, the same colormap is applied to all groups. This is why you obtain the result in the first figure. (Not sure this is the most sensible default indeed, but it's like this at the moment).

You should use the color argument and pass explicitly the colors, if you want each group to have a separate color, like this:

fig, axes = joypy.joyplot(iris,fill=True, legend=True, by="Name", color=["k","b","r","g"])

You could even pass a list of different colormaps, where the list has the same length as the number of groups. You can find both examples in the notebook.
