Hi Dave,

Nice to hear from you again.

I wonder if we are chasing a red herring here. Out of curiosity, can you have
the lat/lon lines labels according to what you want when starting fresh with the
IDV (without loading any data). My own experimentation did not reveal too many
problems here.

I wonder if the problem lies with your gridded data instead. That may explain
the error message you are seeing which is related to gridded data and not
lat/lon line rendering. (That is my working hypothesis, anyway). I could not
find any gridded data with your attached bundle (other than the terrain data
but I don't think that is what you have in mind).

If this is like the past, I suspect you may have some WRF data you may be trying
to visualize. At any rate, can you point us to the data you may be trying to
visualize. Or you can upload it here:

Thanks,
