Hi All,
To follow up on my own post - because my curtains and contours were well-ordered, I simply set the "zorder" on each call and got the right effect.
Thanks, Jody

I also want to be able to contour a second variable C2 also MxN. I know how to do that, but the example below just uses plot3D, because thats how I do the curtain contouring.
