Hi Vaibhav,
Try setting cnRasterSmoothingOn to True if you want the contouring to look more like an AreaFill type plot.

I wanted to set the countours levels explicitly so I used the "cnLevelSelectionMode" resource and set it to "ExplicitLevels". Then I specified my contour levels as "opts@cnLevels = (/10,20,25,26,27,27.5,28,29,30,35/)". The problem which I am facing is that when all the data values fall in one range (say 10 - 20 or 28 - 29), I get a white image and my contours are not plotted. I checked the data values and found that they are not constant but they fall in the same range. I neither get any error nor any warning. What do I do to avoid this and get a contour (which will be obviously of one color depending upon the range the data values fall into)?
