Hi Bruce,

If you are requesting the x/y points that define a
specific contour isoline, then this is not available at
the user level. These are calculated in an internal function
and there is no interface to retrieve this information.

----
Although not germane to your specific question,
there are examples of 'spaghetti' plots:

Example 1-3

Example 5
