Re: Skew_T color

Hi Mary: Thanks! May I ask you one more question about Skew_T? I tried to set xpWind for different numberd from 45 in the script. However, the location of the wind profile is the same. In the skewt_func.ncl I used, I found the following:           ypWind = skewty (pw)           xpWind = new (dimsizes(pw), float)           xpWind = skewtx (45. , skewty(1013.) ) ; location of wind barb           wmbarb(wks, xpWind, ypWind, up, vp )           wmsetp("col",wbcol)               ; reset to initial color value It seems that skewt_func.ncl uses fixed number (45) for the location. If this is the case, can you tell me how to make necessary changes so that different number setting for xmWind can be accepted by skewt_func.ncl? Thanks!

If you have changed the color map, then you may get some unexpected results. Some of the colors the Skew-T code is looking for are "PaleGreen", "White", "Green", "Brown", "Tan", "RoyalBlue", "Red", and "Sienna" (I've attached a sample PNG file so you can see them). I would recommend *not* setting a color table for the Skew-T plots, unless you explicitly include the colors that it needs. --Mary On Sun, 8 Jun 2008, Yang Yang wrote: > Hello: I used the example scripts to plot Skew_T, however, the green color was plotted with gray and pink colour was not plotted. I used  Version 4.2.0.a033. Is the version not high enough? or my default colour table is different? Would you please help me solve this problem? Thanks!
