[gradsusr] in netcdf file unable to display 4-D variables

[SMITH, JONATHAN WYNN. (GSFC-6133)]

Hello:

I have a netcdf file with many variables
    float Q(time, lev, lat, lon) ;
        Q:units = "KG/KG" ;
    float SA1_VMR_inst(time, lev, lat, lon) ;
        SA1_VMR_inst:units = "VMR" ;
    float SOA_VMR_inst(time, lev, lat, lon) ;
        SOA_VMR_inst:units = "VMR" ;
    float T(time, lev, lat, lon) ;
        T:units = "K" ;
    float TOLUENE_VMR_inst(time, lev, lat, lon) ;
        TOLUENE_VMR_inst:units = "VMR" ;
    float TROPLEV(time, lat, lon) ;
        TROPLEV:units = "KM" ;
float U(time, lev, lat, lon) ;
        U:units = "M/S" ;
    float V(time, lev, lat, lon) ;
        V:units = "M/S" ;
    char current_mss(nchar) ;
        current_mss:long_name = "MSS pathname of this file" ;
    int date(time) ;
        date:long_name = "current date as 6 digit integer (YYMMDD)" ;
    int datesec(time) ;
        datesec:long_name = "seconds to complete current date" ;
        datesec:units = "s" ;
    int days(time) ;
        days:long_name = "elapsed simulation days for this case" ;
    char first_mss(nchar) ;
        first_mss:long_name = "MSS pathname of first file for this case"

I use the following script:

* B Vs -VTL
'reinit'
'sdfopen /Volumes/JWS/MOZART_OUTPUT/LARGE_DOMAIN/mozart4-20110721100736853957.nc<http://mozart4-20110721100736853957.nc>'
'set mpdset hires'
'set display color white'
'run rgbset.gs<http://rgbset.gs>'

'c'
"set parea 1 10 1 7.5"
"set LON -30 59"
"set LAT -12 30"
"set LEV 1"
'set grads off'
'set gxout shaded'
"set rgb 24 255 120 120"
"set clevs 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 160 180 200 220 240"
"set ccols 9 14 4 11 5 13 3 10 7 12 8 2 24"
'd days'
'set string 1 l 3'
'draw string 7.5 8.0' _analysis
"run cbar.gs<http://cbar.gs>"
'draw title 22 May 2006 MOZART L3\OzoneMixing Ratio (ppbv)'
'printim /Users/jonathanwsmith/MOZART/mozart_22may.gif'

For what ever reason I am only able to plot the one and three dimensional variable like days (1-D) or PS (3-D.  I am am unable to plot Q or SOA_VMR_inst which are 4-D?

What could be going wrong?
