I don't see it. x = np.arange(9) x.shape = (3,3) cs = contourf(x, 1) print cs.collections.get_paths() This shows a set of vertices with a matching set of LINETO (after an initial MOVETO). contour and contourf generate piece-wise linear paths with vertices on grid cell boundaries; they make no attempt to smooth out the contours.
