Re: contour labels outside of plot region

Adrian,

This is not a bug. When you mask areas using mp resources these don’t apply to contour resources.

I think the “cnLabelDrawOrder” resource might help you. Please see the examples on the page:

https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/draworder.shtml

In particular, see draworder_3.ncl
