Re: [ferret_users] plot/overlay not working

[Russ Fiedler <russell.fiedler@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Arijeet,


Just a couple of things in general first. Try to include the Ferret 
version number and platform that you're running on. There may be known bugs.

A couple off attached gifs to show the results might help here.

Check that the time axes for your variables are conformable. It could 
well be that they are on very different time axes and this would have the
effect of an overlay looking really strange since Ferret may not be 
putting them on a common axis.

SHOW DATA
SHOW GRID uo_m
SHOW GRID u_m

will help you see this. If they are on diffent grids then "SHOW AXIS 
axisname" is useful.

Also try plotting the two variables simultaneously. It migh be fairly 
obvious that they aren't aligned. I think this may be your problem.

plot um[z=0:400@ave],uo_m[z=0:400@ave]

Cheers,
Russ
