My code sample below "almost" gets there; I can see the polygon lines around the edges of the plot, but not the diagonal lines connecting the edge lines. The only reason I can see the edge lines is because I plotted with a line width of 5. The contour coloring seems to cover the diagonal lines.

Tried a million differrent things to try and get the polygon object to show up on top. Finally figured out to
do splot
now define the object polygon with "front"
replot

Now the object shows up higher than than the contour.
