[gradsusr] Rounding Numbers With Decimals

[Perry, Aaron @ LSC]

Thanks for the advice Stephen. I'm currently using mfhilo<http://gradsaddict.blogspot.com/2013/05/tutorial-draw-sea-level-pressure-map.html> to plot MSLP contours on top of my temp shaded contour. I just tried using the 'set dignum' option and it did not work. I still have MSLP values that have decimals, ex 1025.67.

Is there something that I have to adjust/turn off within the script itself? I've attached the script to this email.

Onward and Upward,

Aaron,

If you're wanting to change the numbers displayed on screen (as with 'set gxout grid'), then use 'set dignum ...', e.g., 'set dignum 0' to drop the decimals before displaying the variable.

If you're wanting to change the numbers using 'set gxout print' then use 'set prnopts..', e.g., 'set prnopts %0.0f'' will drop the decimals when you display the variable.

Hope this helps...
Stephen Mc

Good Evening Everyone,

I'm using OpenGrADS and I want to change MSLP values from say 1018.60mb to just 1018mb; same thing for temperatures. Is there a way that I can do this? I know that GrADS has a bunch of math functions but, I'm not sure which one to use and how to tell it to reduce ANY displayed values with decimals in them.
