Re: [ferret_users] several things
Hi,
I think I can't use FILL/CONTOUR because it's not a 2-dimensional plot?
I get an error if i change shade for fill... I am ploting height
(y-axis) Vs xlong in a concrete point of latitude.
Is there another way to smooth the image?
I have used the LABEL comand to put the name of the place that I need
where I need (I have used label/nouser ...and inches)
Now, I would like to plot a meteorological tower of 100 m (a little
stick in my graphic) in some concrete position.. Can I do it? I would
like to use a predefined image, but I can also use only a kind of stick.
I think I am going to need a posprocessing tool to do it..
Thank you very much for all
