Yea I'm not sure how I would do that. I'm assuming positioning but not
sure exactly what to position. I have this code now:

contour, data, x, y, max_value = max_bright, min_value = min_bright, $
/Fill, C_Colors = indgen(levels), background = 1, xstyle = 4, $
ystyle = 4, levels = userLevels, /normal, color = black, $
Position = [0.001, 0.1, 0.75, 0.80]

colorBar, NColors=levels, divisions=6, Range = [min_data, max_data], $
format='(I5)', Position = [0.80, 0.10, 0.81, 0.90], Color = black,
$
/vertical, /right

The contour image looks a little distorted and I got the color bar in
the box with numbers but it's really thin.

Also you mentioned something about normalized coordinates in your next
post. Is there another type of positioning?

Thanks.
