Re: palette with ppl command

[Jaison Kurian <jaison@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Claire Livingston,
                       You can specify the palette you want in two ways 

    1. set a particular palette for the whole ferret session
         yes? palette=no_green_centered

    2. set a particular palette for a particular fill command
         yes? fill/hlim=**:**:**/vlim=**:**:**/palette=no_green_centered var

 ppl fill will not take any arguments like palette. You can use the /set 
qualifier to the fill command and use go unlabel and ppl fill to get rid 
of the label you don't want. Have a trial with the attached script.

Hope this helps ...

With Regards 

Jaison
