Gerry, I didn't get your .nts file attachments. In answer to your question 1), there isn't a target in the gdplot2 Makefile to build a gdplot2_gif, but, it is very simple to add this into the Makefile. I have attached an update for $GEMPAK/source/prograns/gd/gdplot2/Makefile Replace the current gdplot2 Makefile, and then build with: cd $GEMPAK/source/prograns/gd/gdplot2/Makefile make programs_gif make clean 2) Your graphic doesn't have a map, so I'm not sure what you are referring to. To define the display of a gridded data set using the CED projection, set the parameter PROJ=ced instead of DEF or whatever other projection you are using. If you want to interpolate your grid from a different projection to CED points, you can do that using GDDIAG, such that a CED display of the grid will have the interpolated point locations on straight rows/columns. Note that anytime you display a grid in something other than its native projection, the rows and columns will not necessarily look straight! If you want to send me your .nts input, I'll see what you are doing, Steve Chiswell Unidata User Support Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: YCE-717567 Department: Support GEMPAK Priority: Normal Status: On Hold
