Re: full vector plot in meta mode using ppl?
Hi James Booth,
Did you use "set reg" command to set the desired lat-lon
region ? For me vector command is working fine and the output (ps file)
file looks as expected. On which tool did you try to see the ps file?
gv ? did you choose proper page size (A4) insted of the default BBox in
gv? Anyway the following example worked fine for me ( with and without
/nolabel & for both vector & "ppl vector"). If you are able to
reproduce the problem with this example, please post it back to the
mailing list.
!---------example.jnl---------------
sp rm -f metafile*plt* ! to remove already existing meta files
set mode meta
set data monthly_navy_winds.cdf
set reg/x=80W:10W/y=-60:60/l=1 ! explicit specification of lat
! lon & time region
vector/set_up uwnd, vwnd
ppl xlab "Longitude" ;ppl ylab "Latitude"
ppl veckey/nouser 3,-1,,(f4.1)
ppl vector
cancel mode meta ! neccessary to produce the ps file from the
ppl clsplt ! metafile in the current Ferret session
sp Fprint -l cps -o test.ps -R metafile.plt
! sp ps2pdf test.ps ! if you need a pdf file
!---------end of example.jnl-----------------------
Run this example script and try to see test.ps in gv (Choose A4 instead
of default BBox).
Hope this helps
With Regards
Jaison
