Dear Malgorzata,

Have you tried "plot/vs"command?

For your case, it should be something like

plot/vs/over/nolab/color="black"/thick=3/title="" xre,yre

See more information in official Ferret doc pages:

http://ferret.pmel.noaa.gov/Ferret/documentation/users-guide/commands-reference/PLOT#_VPINDEXENTRY_1489

Good luck!

Cheers,

Paulo Santiago

Dear Ferret Users,

unfortunately I couldn't find anywhere...

I need to plot an OPEN boundary on a map - line but not closed polygon ,

I am using a polygon command:

POLY/line/OV/nolab/color="black"/thick=3/TITLE="" xre,yre

xre, yre contain vertices

unfortunately it always connects the last point to the first one??

one way is to do it back and forth - it works but is not very practical if you have a lot of vertices

Is there any other solution?

I would be very grateful for any suggestion,

thanks and all the best

Malgorzata
