Thank you very much both of you!! Jose, I will try your suggestion (regardless its application on my "issue") to see how it works!:) You never know, Maybe, I will need to apply it sometime. As for the par and the filled.contour I know that the layout parameter thatis already incorporated in filled.contour function "makes our life harder" and we cannot use the (so easy to apply) par parameter...
Thierry, the graph is really amazing!! This is what I want! Let's if I can apply your suggestion in my data. I am curious to see the results.
