Fill Areas in Contour Plots

If you select the Fill Areas option, the areas between contour lines are filled with the contour line colors. This option is available in the Launch window and in the red triangle menu for Contour Plot. Figure 10.6 shows a plot with contour lines on the left and a plot with the contour areas filled on the right.
