    Can anyone suggest a method for making a slanted contour plot? Specifically, I want to make a contour that has the x axis be horizontal, but the y axis slanted from vertical, to give sort of a 3D look with the purpose of staking 3 or more plots on top of one another to indicate layers of a system.

    A solution may be to give Z-values to your contour to create a stack of contour plots, then rotate the plot until the image looks the way you want it to. For example: IDL> a = BYTE(DIST(500)) IDL> c = contour(a, ZVALUE=2) IDL> d = contour(a, ZVALUE=1, /overplot, color='blue') IDL> e = contour(a, ZVALUE=1.5, /overplot, color='red') This will create a stack of contour plots that you can rotate. I hope this helps.
