Sorry for dropping the ball on this; the attached tar file
contains the script, the input file, and the control file I'm
using.<br>
<br>
I'm using GrADS v2.0.1.<br>
<br>
Please let me know if you need any additional info. Thanks!<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>

If you don't mind, I would like to follow up on why the direct

<div>the only trick I know is:<br>
- understand if the field is constant or not
(by set gxout stat: compare<br>
min and max)<br>
- if constant add a little varying field,
eg.: if mslp is constant<br>
display something like mslp +lon/10000<br>

its' not clean but it's what I'm doing ...<br>
