# All plot settings for a map are stored in the ``plot_settings`` attribute.
# How a Map is displayed is determined by its colormap, which sets the colors
# , and the normalization, which sets how data values are translated to colors.
# Let's replace the colormap and normalization.

# To see all of the colormaps sunpy provides see `sunpy.visualization.colormaps`.
# Matplotlib provides a number of `colormaps <https://matplotlib.org/examples/color/colormaps_reference.html>`_
# and `normalizations <https://matplotlib.org/users/colormapnorms.html>`_.
# For more advanced normalizations see `astropy.visualization`.
