[IDV #BYI-999282]: No Labels Displayed (or very few of them)

Bonjour Michel,

We have made some improvements to our contouring algorithms lately. Please 
download and try the nightly build 
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/downloads/idv/nightly/index.jsp.

Also try experimenting with the zoom level. Sometimes that can help improve the 
contours.

Cordialement,

Unidata IDV Support

> Unfortunately, despite having changed contour intervals, contour

> but one label was withdrawed twice. The best smoothing seems to be
> "none" or "Gaussian Weighted" (for the same result).

> In the case of sea data (significant heights; periods, ...) in Grib

> used.
