Overplotting contour plot with one specific level labeled [message #82000] Tue, 13 November 2012 15:24 Go to next message

I'm currently plotting up some contours showing the reduced chi2 values resulting from comparing a grid of models with some actual data. I am using cgcontour and the Coyote graphics suite to do this. We are interested not only in pinpointing the lowest value, but also in looking at all values which are statistically significant. For this reason, I would like to identify those two values on the contour plot with their own labeled contour lines, so that it is obvious that the values between those contour are the ones that are significant. However, I am at a loss for how to do this. Any thoughts on how to specify a level or two only at a particular value on top of a contour plot??
