Steve (and GEMPAK support), I have been attempting to modify some of the NMAP2 restore files for use with streamlines; specifically, attempting to decrease the number of lines drawn. This would be analogous, for instance, to using the STREAM keyword in gdstream - such that STREAM=0.5 or similar. I've placed the STREAM keyword in my restore file, varying the value - with no effect. I then have tried using the SKIP or CINT . . . nothing changes the output rendered. So - how does one control the number of lines in a restore file for NMAP grid functions? -- Stonie R.
