plotting - ContourPlot has extra mesh in PDF

When I create a contour plot it looks fine. When I copy as PDF, and paste into another document (e.g. Apple Mail, Keynote, etc.) it has an extra unwanted white mesh. This occurs even when the option Method -> {"TransparentPolygonMesh" -> True} is used.

Here is an example.

plot = ContourPlot[Exp[-Norm[{x, y}]^2], {x, -1, 1}, {y, -1, 1}, 
  Method -> {"TransparentPolygonMesh" -> True}]

Here is the picture that results, after copying as PDF, pasting into Mail, and doing a screen grab.

Here are the options:

Options[plot]


{DisplayFunction -> Identity, 
     AspectRatio -> 1, DisplayFunction :> Identity, Frame -> True, 
     FrameTicks -> {{Automatic, Automatic}, {Automatic, Automatic}}, 
     GridLinesStyle -> Directive[

    GrayLevel[0.5, 0.4]], 
     Method -> {"TransparentPolygonMesh" -> True, 
       "DefaultBoundaryStyle" -> Automatic}, 
     PlotRange -> {{-1, 1}, {-1, 1}}, PlotRangeClipping -> True, 
     PlotRangePadding -> {{Scaled[0.02], Scaled[0.02]}, {Scaled[0.02], 
        Scaled[0.02]}}, Ticks -> {Automatic, Automatic}}

I am using version 11.0.0.0 on Apple OS X 10.11.6 but the problem was present in previous versions.

I am aware that similar questions have been asked, but none provided a solution.

front end - keyboard shortcut to invoke Insert new matrix

I frequently need to type in some matrices, and the menu command Insert > Table/Matrix > New... allows matrices with lines drawn between columns and rows, which is very helpful. I would like to make a keyboard shortcut for it, but cannot find the relevant frontend token command (4209405) for it. Since the FullForm[] and InputForm[] of matrices with lines drawn between rows and columns is the same as those without lines, it's hard to do this via 3rd party system-wide text expanders (e.g. autohotkey or atext on mac). How does one assign a keyboard shortcut for the menu item Insert > Table/Matrix > New... , preferably using only mathematica? Thanks! Answer In the MenuSetup.tr (for linux located in the $InstallationDirectory/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/TextResources/X/ directory), I changed the line MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog"] to read MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog", MenuKey["m", Modifiers-...

How to thread a list

I have data in format data = {{a1, a2}, {b1, b2}, {c1, c2}, {d1, d2}} Tableform: I want to thread it to : tdata = {{{a1, b1}, {a2, b2}}, {{a1, c1}, {a2, c2}}, {{a1, d1}, {a2, d2}}} Tableform: And I would like to do better then pseudofunction[n_] := Transpose[{data2[[1]], data2[[n]]}]; SetAttributes[pseudofunction, Listable]; Range[2, 4] // pseudofunction Here is my benchmark data, where data3 is normal sample of real data. data3 = Drop[ExcelWorkBook[[Column1 ;; Column4]], None, 1]; data2 = {a #, b #, c #, d #} & /@ Range[1, 10^5]; data = RandomReal[{0, 1}, {10^6, 4}]; Here is my benchmark code kptnw[list_] := Transpose[{Table[First@#, {Length@# - 1}], Rest@#}, {3, 1, 2}] &@list kptnw2[list_] := Transpose[{ConstantArray[First@#, Length@# - 1], Rest@#}, {3, 1, 2}] &@list OleksandrR[list_] := Flatten[Outer[List, List@First[list], Rest[list], 1], {{2}, {1, 4}}] paradox2[list_] := Partition[Riffle[list[[1]], #], 2] & /@ Drop[list, 1] RM[list_] := FoldList[Transpose[{First@li...

dynamic - How can I make a clickable ArrayPlot that returns input?

I would like to create a dynamic ArrayPlot so that the rectangles, when clicked, provide the input. Can I use ArrayPlot for this? Or is there something else I should have to use? Answer ArrayPlot is much more than just a simple array like Grid : it represents a ranged 2D dataset, and its visualization can be finetuned by options like DataReversed and DataRange . These features make it quite complicated to reproduce the same layout and order with Grid . Here I offer AnnotatedArrayPlot which comes in handy when your dataset is more than just a flat 2D array. The dynamic interface allows highlighting individual cells and possibly interacting with them. AnnotatedArrayPlot works the same way as ArrayPlot and accepts the same options plus Enabled , HighlightCoordinates , HighlightStyle and HighlightElementFunction . data = {{Missing["HasSomeMoreData"], GrayLevel[ 1], {RGBColor[0, 1, 1], RGBColor[0, 0, 1], GrayLevel[1]}, RGBColor[0, 1, 0]}, {GrayLevel[0], GrayLevel...
