How to set the position of the label in a contour plot?

Dear all,

I need help in draw a contour plot. I got a contour plot using the following code:

[c2,h2]=contour(xx(6:300),yy(6:300),Theta_e(6:300,6:300),'--b','LineWidth',0.2,'ShowText','on','labelspacing', 700);

The postion of label in the blue lines are set with 'labelspacing'. But I want the position of the label in the blue lines at the end of the blue lines. I wonder how to do it.

Thanks in advance.

The function "clabel" will solve the issue.

With "clabel(c,h,'manual')" command you can add the label at locations you select with the mouse. For further reference see this link.

You can also use seperate contour plots such that one of those plots only has contour lines on the left. You can then enable labels only for that one. The other contour plot will then not have any labels.
