Re: [ferret_users] STOP var prot err --> UVAR



I don’t know whether or not this will help.  My ferret scripts often do some math, then plot a graph, then I make a gif of that graph using the FRAME command.  With the last couple of versions of ferret, ferret crashes at that point, sometimes with a not very informative error message.  On faster machines, the graph is still being plotted when ferret is trying to grab a snapshot of the frame.  This can be solved by slowing things down with a “sleep” command spawned out to the operating system as shown below.  It is hokey, but it works.  

..ferret math percolating along…
sp sleep 0.5
frame/file=mygif/format=gif

Or maybe your problems are elsewhere!
