You can use the contour plot options to customize the appearance of contour plots. Select Options
Contour from the main menu bar or click 
in the toolbox to access the Contour Plot Options dialog box. Click the following tabs to customize the appearance of contour plots in the current viewport:
Basic: Choose the contour type (including whether to show tick marks for line elements), contour intervals, and contour method.
Color & Style: The Color & Style page contains the following tabs:
Model Edges: Control the color of model edges.
Spectrum: Choose contour colors.
Line: For line-type contours control the style and thickness of each line.
Banded: For banded-type contours control the color, style, and thickness of contour edges.
Limits: Control the computation of contour limits and the display of annotations for the maximum and minimum contour values.
Other: Control tick mark plot display options and the display of nodal averaged vector or tensor orientations.
Other options such as the render style, edge visibility, deformation scale factor, and translucency are located in the Common Plot Options dialog box. If you choose to plot contours on both the undeformed and the deformed shape, you can use the Superimpose Plot Options to customize the appearance of the undeformed shape. See “Superimposing deformed and undeformed model plots,” Section 25.6, for more information about superimpose plots. To learn how to customize the render style and underlying model of your contour plot, see Chapter 36, “Customizing plot display.” For information on the computation of result values, see “Understanding how results are computed,” Section 24.5.1.
