Contour labels screwed up when using MAXVALUE [message #3322] Tue, 13 December 1994 10:52

Specifically, I'm putting "axes" on a polar plot. So I have this
array containing the angle of each pixel.

contour,theta, levels=[0,30,60,etc],c_annot=['0','30','60',etc],/overplot

gives nice contour labels, but has a horrible contour with all the labels
on it at the discontinuity (say I've set it at -15=345). But

contour,theta,levels=[blah blah],c_annot=[blah blah],maxvalue=340,/overplot

while putting up exactly the contours I want, moves the contour labels to
spastic places (either really close to the center or totally off the map).

Anyone have any suggestions on how to get the contours I want, with the
labels in rational places?

Thanks,
Andrew Chen
