Very interesting problem, which is that the Delaunay
constructor in Irregular2DSet creates a triangulation of
the convex closure of the samples array. But you can get
what you want using:
nodeSet = DelaunayCustom.fill(nodeOutlineSet);
If you get a "path self-intersects" message its because
the first and last points in your aNode array are identical -
you can fix it by making a second aNode array and nodeOutlineSet
without the repeated point. Also, the nodeSet returned by
the fill() method may have a different number of points -
you'll have to check with getLength() before calling
the Field's setSamples().

I don't understand the question. Do you want the color to
vary over the border of one Irregular2DSet, or for different
Sets to have different colors?

Does Test69 in visad/examples display properly with the
serif font on your system?
Good luck,
