Re: how to add colormap

Hi, Kyle,

Thanks for your help.
I reset the environment variable NCARG_COLORMAPS, and it works very well.

Hi Feng,


Try following the instructions for keeping colormap files in a personal directory, from http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Graphics/create_color_table.shtml


From that page:
Otherwise, if you want to keep the file in a personal directory, then you need to set the environment variable NCARG_COLORMAPS to point to the full path of this directory. Note that once you do this, NCL will no longer see the other color tables that reside in the standard location, so you need to add the standard location as well.



There are some examples of how to do just this at the link above. Hope that helps.
