all is fine but one thing i can't change at the moment.<br><br>e.g. 500hPa geopot the values are between (Contouring: 50000 to 58000 interval 1000)<br>thats what i get i'm trying to change the values to 500 to 580 (i know how to change the interval) <br>
<br>I tried the function set clab ... but i can only add digits after the decimal point. <br><br>Sry for my bad english hope you can understand me :) <br><br>greetings<br><hr>FreeMail powered by <a href="https://mail.de" target="_blank">mail.de</a> - <strong>mehr Sicherheit, Seriosität und Komfort</strong>
