Hi Morwenna,
How are you?
I mucked around with this for a little bit and came up with this:
a=dist(100)
contour,a,levels=findgen(10)*10
contour,a,levels=[30,40],c_col=[250,0],/cell_fill,/over,min_ value=29,max_val
ue=41
Note the use of /cell_fill instead of /fill. I also had to use min and max
values of
29 and 41 -> try using min and max of 29.9 and 40.1! This causes stepping in
the filling (due to data outside of the range 29.9 and 40.1 being treated as
missing).
Anyway, the above will "blank" out a small part of the y-axis (look near the
40 and 60 tick marcks).
This is due to the colour '0' being used to fill between data values of 40
and 41.
So to get around this I did the following which is a bit kludgey:
a=dist(100)
contour,a,levels=findgen(10)*10,/nodata
contour,a,levels=[30,40],c_col=[250,0],/cell_fill,/over,min_ value=29,max_val
ue=41
contour,a,levels=findgen(10)*10,/noerase
Hope this helps. Has anyone got a better solution, I would certainly be
interested
to know of another way to do this.
Catch up with you sometime Morwenna.
Cheers, Paul
