A little better

sh = surfc(peaks(32));
zLevel = 15;
ph = findobj(sh,'Type','patch');
pv = get(ph,'zdata');
pv = cellfun(@(x)zLevel+x*0,pv,...
'UniformOutput',false);
pn = {'zdata'};
set(ph,pn,pv,'LineWidth',2)

Another way

sh = surfc(peaks(32));
zLevel = 15;
ph = findobj(sh,'Type','patch');
zlim = get(gca,'ZLim');
pv = get(ph,'zdata');
pv = cellfun(@(x)zLevel+x-zlim(1),pv,...
'UniformOutput',false);
pn = {'zdata'};
set(ph,pn,pv,'LineWidth',2)

John L:
<SNIP wants to move his/her contours along the z-axis...

one of the solutions

% the plot
     sh=surfc(peaks(32));
% the engine
     sh=findall(sh,'type','patch');
     zi=get(gca,'zlim');
for i=1:numel(sh)
     zd=get(sh(i),'zdata');
     zd=zi(2)*ones(size(zd))+5;
     set(sh(i),'zdata',zd);
     set(sh(i),'linewidth',2);
end

Is there any way to take the plane that the contours are
projected on and move it above the rendered surface...this
seems like a logical thing, but I could not find an option
or what not to that effect.

Thanks for the help,
John
