Amend intervals in contour generator

[Ste_EDFER]

Morning all,

I've imported and converted a XYZ file into a 3D surface and now want to create a contour layer. How do I change the default values in 'generate contour' as my height difference is only 8m and want my contour elevation intervals to be 1m as oppose to the lowerest on the drop down which is 10m.

Many thanks in advance for any help 🙂

Many thanks for your reply,

I was doing exactly as you described below BUT I didn't know you could manually type in a value in the "contour elevation interval" panel, I thought the drop down was static.

Thanks again
