Hi Arlindo,
I tried downloading the gshhs lake files too and received the same result.  Here's the segment of the script that overlays the shapefiles. I've attached the output (png file)

'set line 33 1 6'
'shp_lines gshhs_land'
'shp_polyf gshhs_land'
'shp_lines hshhs_lake'
'shp_polyf hshhs_lake'

Also here is the out put from Grads.  As best I can tell it is reading the shapefile fine and appears to be drawing both the lines and polygons, but the polygons do not appear. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Hi Arlindo,
Thanks so much for providing these new capabilities.  This is wonderful stuff!

I've been playing with shapefiles from gshhs and ersi using Win32 superpack non-self installing version.  Can get the outline of the coast to display fine from both sources but not the polygons from gshhs. Polygons from ersi works fine though. Also cannot seem to get the coast outline to draw 'thicker'.  Not sure if that is an available option, but here's the code I'm using.

'set line 33 1 6'
'shp_lines gshhs_land'
'shp_polyf gshhs_land'

Am I dong something wrong?

All,


  I just uploaded to sf.net a new Win32 GrADS release:


     http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=161773&package_id=270750


Notice that Win32 GrADS now has its own packaged called "grads-windows". See the ChangeLog for additional info.


   This version fixes some bugs with DOS-style text files, and includes Release 2 of the OpenGrADS extensions, with Grib-2 and Shapefile support (as well as an improved "fish"). To quickly checkout the new features:


Grib-2:


   ga-> g2_open ../data/model_25.gdf
   ga-> d g2(tmpprs)


or with the % shorthand


   ga-> % d tmpprs


Shapefile:


   ga-> open ../data/model.ctl
   ga-> d ts
   ga-> shp_polyf admin98


Fish:


   ga-> set lev 200
   ga-> d fish_psi(ua,va)
   ga-> clear
   ga-> d fish_chi(ua,va)


   For documentation,


          http://opengrads.org/doc/



   Let me know of any problems.


     Arlindo
