Good Morning All,

Currently, I'm having an issue where "No Files Open" pops up every time that I run GrADS in Batch Mode (grads -clb).

This results in the Valid Forecast Time not being displayed on my plots. At first, I thought that it was an issue of the 'set t 1' placement after 'reinit', as I'm using g2ctl/gribmap ctl files.

I've sort of narrowed this down to just a batch mode problem because, when I open the .gs file with 'grads -l' , "No Files Open" does not pop up and the Valid Forecast Time shows up on the plot.

Has anybody else had this issue before?

Onward and Upward,

You've probably got a 'q time' command in your script before you open any files, or after you open a file with some error. But without knowing what script you're running on startup, it's impossible to help any further.

You use it like the other map files. Put it in the same place where the others are located (in the directory pointed to with GADDIR environment variable), then try 'set mpdset newmap'.

(I know we are small, and mostly irrelevant, but Yugoslavia started to fall apart in early 90s) Or is there any chance to make map, putting some political maps like a layer or something like that.
