[gradsusr] Eurocentric global map

Thanks Alan and Chris,

I'm still having troubles plotting the map.
When I use "set lon -180 180", one half of the plot is missing (see image attached)

Without this instruction the map is fine (with all data displayed), though Europe is not in the centre.
Any ideas as to what I have done wrong?

Best,
Cara

Alan:

I think you mean:

set lon -180 180

Dear Cara

set lat -180 180

or if you don't want to split Alaska:

set lat -170 190

Dear users,

I need to plot a global map, which is centred on the Prime Meridian
(i.e. a Eurocentric map).
Currently, the Prime Meridian is at either edge of my plot. How do I
change this?

Thanks,
Cara
