[gradsusr] Standard color bar for multiple plots

Saiguran,
I see two possible problems here:
1. You don't have enough ccols for your number of clevs when using gxout shaded. You have 12 clevs and 12 ccols, but you need 13 ccols. Define another color (e.g. 'set rgb 87 ...') in your function 'mycolors' and add 87 to your list of ccols, or add one of the standard grads colors to 'set ccols ...'
2. Your function 'mycolors' is missing a return statement at the end. After the line 'set rgb 99 0 93 81', put a return statement.
Best regards,

When I do as shown below only one colour is displayed (green) covering the whole temperature range from 288 to 310.
The color is standard.
mycolors()
'set clevs 288 290 292 294 296 298 300 302 304 306 308 310'
'set ccols 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99'
'd variable'
'draw title ...'
'quit'
function mycolors()
'set rgb 88 ...'
'set rgb 89 ...'
'set rgb 90 ...'
Here is my script:

Try the following;
mycolors()
'set clevs 288 290 292 294 296 298 300 302 304 306 308 310'
'set ccols 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 98'
'd variable'
'draw title ...'
'quit'
function mycolors()
'set rgb 88 ...'
'set rgb 89 ...'
