I found the solution. implicit_plot calls contour_plot, whose default value for the fill option is True. Setting fill=False works: sage: implicit_plot(x^2+y^2-1,(x,-5,5),(y,-5,5),fill=False)
IMHO most people don't want implicit_plot to fill in by default, so Trac #4462 has been added. regards john perry On Nov 6, 5:05 pm, john_perry_usm <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hullo, > > The most recent version I have of Sage (3.1.4) believes that I want my > implicit plots filled.
