To: The idl gods,

I am trying to fill in different contour levels of a 3D plot. I have 10
levels of contours, which are defined by using the following commands.

surfr
vals=[-200,-190, -180, -170,-160,-150,-140,-130,-120,-110,-100]
contour, Array1, /follow, levels=vals, /T3D, /overplot
surface, Array1, /noerase

Array1 is the 2 D array of data with values running between -200 and
-100. What I would like to
display is a 3D plot with the colors for each level (ex -200 to -190,
-190 to -180, etc) as a distinct color
filled in. the data is kind of like a topographical map with peaks and
valleys. What I am trying to do is
to shade a given "altitude range" with the same color.

Can anyone out there help me?

Regards,
