[Paraview] why when contouring by density does a color plot of density show more than one color?

[Cook, Rich]

That makes sense
Thanks!

I don't think so.
If you color by the point aligned density it should be all one color.
Coloring by cell aligned density will show variation due to the averaging used to create values on the points.
Show surfaces with edges mode, zoom in, and try selection labeling to see the variation on a small patch.

the attached is an image I made by creating a contour of the density variable resulting from the CellDatatoPointData filter on some Miranda data.  I colored by density.  Shouldn't it all be one color?
