Hi Projjolita, If you are dealing with an rectangular projection, you maybe able to use the lonFlip grid diagnostic formula. In the field selector, go to "Formulas" Data Sources. Select Grids > "Define a grid diagnostic". Select a Display of Color-Shaded Plan View or the display of your choice. Click Create Display. This action will bring forth an input window. Enter the formula "lonFlip(a)" Click OK Now select the relevant field in the pop-up "Field Selector" dialog. Click OK. These actions should result in the desired image.
