Hi Armin, thank you for your answer. I am aware that I can adjust color scales. My problem is that I don't get a legend at all in the first place. I have several variants of a contour plot superposed, using solid colors for each variant. I could of course add an empty contour plot, switch the coloring to e.g. potential and fiddle around with the color map. But that is not what I would like to have. But I would like to have a legend similar to the legend of the "plot over line" where I don't have a color map, but just colored line patterns with their respective meaning, like
[blue line here] Variant 1 [red line here] Variant 2 [green line here] Variant 3 How can I generate such a legend?

(See the attached screenshot and state file.) Otherwise, the color legend can be adjusted in arbitrary ways using python. For an example, have a look at the attached python script. Note that the script is very specific for one of my cases, but demonstrates how one can arbitrarily adjust color scales.
