Hi Bob,

I still have difficulties how to make it. The function I use, 
imsUnstructuredContourPlotis, is based on ListContourPlot and is a 
function from the IMTEK package. imsUnstructuredContourPlot returns a 
Graphics and has Options set to:

Options[imsUnstructuredContourPlot]={Contours->10,Mesh->False,ColorFunction->(Hue[(#1 
2)/3]&),ColorFunctionScaling->True,ContourShading->True}

I do not feel comfortable to mess up with IMTEK. Given a Graphics object 
built with ColorFunction -> Hue[#1]&  how can I append a legend?

Thanks in advance,
--Ted
