> I want to plot a 2 panel figure of a density field with cgcontour. I would like to display just one colour bar. Is there a good way to make sure that the colours in each panel correspond to the same density? At the moment I use "clip" to adjust the colour range used by the second contour plot so that the colours in each panel correspond to the same density but I was hoping there is a better way.

Yeah, I can understand why you might be looking for a better way, since
I can't imagine how your method can possibly work. :-)

To get two contour plots to use the same colors for their fill values,
you simple use the same LEVELS and C_COLOR values for both. Simple as
that, really. You probably also have to take care to set the minimum
level to the minimum of the two data sets.

Cheers,

David
