Wow. Now there's an idea. :^)

But why fool around making it an object? I wouldn't
even pretend it was anything other than a direct
graphics window. Unless you want it in an object
graphics window with other object graphics representations.

I agree with Pavel. The contour object is the table
widget all over again, but with a nicer interface. :-)

Cheers,

David

P.S. Let's just say doing it this way opens up
a world of new transparency effects for contour plots. :-)

I have a feeling that Contour object is about as useful as Table widget :-(

Let me just say that I do use contour objects.

But then I use table widgets...oh well.
