the problem is related to the palette being used. The color palette is taken from the scatter plots. A way to fix this is by running for example sc.pl.umap(adata, palette='Blues')
. Then run the heatmap again.
Cool! It did solve my problems. Thank you!

Actually, it'd be great to reuse category number-based dynamic color map selection code thingy we have for scatterplots here. What do you think @fidelram ?
@gokceneraslan If I follow you correctly, the idea would be to add a palette argument to heatmap. That indeed may solve the issue and should not be difficult to achieve. I will put it on my list of future enhancements.

Does it work if I manually update the adata.uns['louvain_colors'] ? It feels weird to run umap just to create the slot for colormap althought it worked for me. Just want to double check.
@brianpenghe I believe it'll work if you manually update adata.uns["louvain_colors"]
, at least it does for the scatter plots.
It is weird. We've talked a bit about having a better API for this here #596.
I plot heatmap for normalized gene expression for 34 clusters. The code is as below:
sc.pl.heatmap(adata, marker_genes, use_raw=False, swap_axes=True, show=False, show_gene_labels=True, save=ofile, groupby='louvain', dendrogram=True)
However, there are only 20 colors for the cluster bars. How can I deal with this issue?
