Orientation of Contour Labels [message #87842]

Folks,

I just discovered that the keyword C_Use_Contour_Orientation=1 will make
the contour labels readable on the contour function command. Well, when
I say "readable" I mean in areas of the plot where they are not all
jumbled together. I seem to recall some way to "thin" these jumbled
contour labels. Does anyone recall something like that?

Humm. Just found C_Label_Interval. I think this is what I remember. You
can play with this value. But in steep areas of the contour (see the
Basic Contour Plot we have been trying to get right all day), they still
stack up on themselves no matter what value you use.

Cheers,

David
