Thanks, Its good to know that it IS possible to set the Z-order for contours (I didnt think it was possible). In any case, I solved this by setting the Z-order in my fillcontinents() and drawcoastlines() calls, and setting them to '100' and '101' respectively (assuming these numbers were high enough to overlap anything else on the plot). Thanks again, P.Romero
