Hello, I thought that it has to be like Ben wrote:
- def contour(self, X, Y, Z, levels=10, **kwargs): + def contour(self, X, Y, Z, *args, **kwargs): Your suggestion Eric ( contour(X, Y, Z, [0] ) doesn't work as the levels are still the same. Can you translate this thread for a "normal" user? Is this a bug and will be fixed in a newer version of matplotlib or what do I have to do to get "less levels"? Thank you for your help.
