Clabel conflicts with contourf

Hi,

I've attached a reproducible example : when clabel is used, there are some empty (i.e white) triangles in the countour.
It does not occur without clabel.

Tested with matplotlib 1.2.0, python 2.7 on Fedora 14, 64 bits.

Cheers,

Thanks for the report--but clabel is intended to be used only with contour, not with contourf. Typically one would call contourf, and then call contour, perhaps with a subset of the levels used in contourf. The ContourSet resulting from the contour call would then be used in the call to clabel. Example:

http://matplotlib.org/examples/pylab_examples/contourf_demo.html

In this example the contour lines are black, but if you don't want the lines to show up at all, you could make them transparent, and then include a "colors" kwarg in the clabel call.
