Re: [ferret_users] improper grid or axis definition: inappropriate orientation for Z axis

["Ansley C. Manke" <ansley.b.manke@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Ryo,

This is fixed in the V7.0 version of Ferret that's available for OSX.

Dear Ferret users,

I may be missing something but the attached script gives me

**ERROR: improper grid or axis definition: inappropriate orientation for Z axis

and I don't understand why. The most strange thing to me is that if you swap seemingly independent lines, the error goes away.

I'm using a rather old version of Ferret (Sorry!)

  FERRET v6.82

  Darwin 9.8.0 - 08/06/12

My OS is macOS 10.31.1 (High Sierra). The same thing happens on a very old mac (which seems to be from 2011 and whose kernel is 10.8.0 Darwin Kernel Version 10.8.0: Tue Jun  7 16:32:41 PDT 2011).

Best regards,

Ryo
