This is 1.5 regression, the following test script works in 1.4.3. The bug only occurs when using a custom colormap. ``` import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import numpy as np from matplotlib import mlab, cm, colors # make up fake data. delta = 0.5 x = np.arange(-3.0, 4.001, delta) y = np.arange(-4.0, 3.001, delta) X, Y = np.meshgrid(x, y) Z1 = mlab.bivariate_normal(X, Y, 1.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0) Z2 = mlab.bivariate_normal(X, Y, 1.5, 0.5, 1, 1) Z = (Z1 - Z2) * 20000 ; Z -= Z.min(); Z *= 0.5 # levels to contour clevs = [0,2,5,10,20,50,100,300,500,700,1000,1500,2000,2500,3000,3500] # contour data, make colorbar fig = plt.figure(figsize=(9.,6.3)) colorst =\ ['White','#E4FFFF','#C4E8FF','#8FB3FF','#D8F9D8','#A6ECA6','#42F742','Yellow','Gold',\ 'Orange','#FCD5D9','#F6A3AE','#FA5257','Orchid','#AD8ADB','#A449FF','LightGray'] custom_cm = colors.ListedColormap(colorst, name='colorst', N=None) ax = fig.add_axes([0.03,.12,0.94,.83]) cs = plt.contourf(X, Y, Z, clevs, colors=colorst) cax = fig.add_axes([0.1,0.05,0.8,0.03]) cbar = fig.colorbar(cs,extend='neither', \ orientation='horizontal',cax=cax,drawedges=True,ticks=clevs) plt.show() ``` The resulting image  does not show all the colorbar labels.

First bad commit is ba7bc0a. @efiring: Any immediate thoughts?

I'm starting to get an inkling. I should be able to sort it out in a day or two. Thanks for bisecting.
BUG: handle colorbar ticks with boundaries and NoNorm; closes matplot…
