Hi Cory-
Best to send these to address@hidden in case I'm not around.
> Real quick question? I am trying to remember the steps to drapping a color

> Select temperature @ HAGL
> Then under display select Color-Shaded image over topography under the

> Under the field selector I choose Formulas, then Miscellaneous, then Any
> Field hit OK
> Then select 2d field (WRF gridded data) such as temperature
>
> Error dialog box pops up at that junction with the following error...
>
> topography units K must convertible with m or gpm

You need to select a topography (vertical units of m or gpm) for the topography
field. You've already selected the temperature field in the first step. When
the dialog pops up, select the 2D grid->geopotential height @ surface
(HGHT_NONE) field. It should show up as a topography field now in 2.7 b3 so
you don't have to use the Any Field any more.
