How do I Create Smooth Contours in ParaFoam?

I am new to OpenFOAM (v2.4.0) and ParaView (v4.1.0). I am working through OF's first tutorial for the driven cavity. During post-processing in ParaView, the tutorial has me create a Slice and then a Contour in the Pipeline Browser. I then see colored isolines on the model (see attached Screen Shot 1). Is there a way to change the isolines into smooth contours across the whole flow field, similar to my attached Screen Shot 2? Seeing just infinitesimal isolines doesn't really work help me much.

Thanks in advance,
M Ridzon
