I am not sure if there is a good solution here, apart from manually drawing graticules. That's what I end up doing. See the attached picture: it's generated roughly like this: ! make the fill plot using curvilinear coordinates fill /set_up /nolabel /levels="(...)" tsurf, x_page, y_page ! medium thickness lines for all frame and tick lines ppl pen 0,7 ppl pen 1,7 ppl fill ! now overlay the graticule using a modified version of mp_graticule.jnl repeat /x=.... (plot /overlay /thick=1 ...) repeat /y=.... (plot /overlay /thick=1 ...) ! overlay coastlines plot /vs/overlay/thick=1/color=black ... Another nice trick is to modify the line color for the graticules: if you make them gray they appear thinner. ! change the color of pen number 6 PPL COLOR,6,60,60,60 ! light gray plot /overlay /pen=6 ... It's quite some work to do a plot that way, but I find that with a couple of ferret scripts I can easily repeat the effort for many plots. The output quality is hard to beat, and it will always be a lot of work to fine-tune plots no matter what you do. Hope that helps!
