I apologize in advance for what may be an uninformed question. I have generated (via a template) a number of contour plots that have a y-data range from 1.9 to 5.1. To avoid Renka-Cline fitting/edge effects, I want to restrict the display in the final contour graph to the range of 2.0 to 5.0. Doing that by either setting the y-scale range explicitly or by specifying clipping margins seems to cut off all or part of labels for contour values near the edges of the graph. I'd really like to show these values. Short of manually inserting labels for contour line values (for many graphs) is there a way to set the location of the contour values so that they will always be visible or, alternatively, is there a way to move individual contour line values so that they will be visible?
OK, I knew this would happen. Read far enough in the help file, stupid. Sorry for the bother. Since I asked the question, here's the answer: all you do is right-click on the label and in the menu that pops up a new label can be easily added. Left-click on an existing label and it can easily be moved along an existing contour line.
