Finally I understand that contour(I,[lvl lvl]) separates zones where point heights are strictly lower than lvl from zones where point heights are greater or equal than lvl.
Contours of uniform 2D objects with contourc

Hi,
Using the function contour on gray-level images, I notice a strange feature about contours of a specific level with uniform connex components.
I want to test it for level 127 on a synthetic image, so I make athis illustrative test sample:
I = [255*ones(9,3),127*ones(9,3),zeros(9,3)];
Quoting the documentation: "To draw a single contour of level i, use contour(Z,[i i])."
So I call
contour(I,[127 127]);
The display shows only the right boundary, not the left one. When I type
contour(I,[127 128]);
then I have the two boundaries (with different colors).
I don't understand why is that so; I can't figure out with reading the doc. Does anybody know why is that so?
