The maskout() function will plot a set of streamlines in an area corresponding to whatever speed, direction, or other threshold you want (sounds like you want to use speed as a threshold), and all of the streamlines plotted will correspond to the current 'set strmden' settings. Between each display command you will want to re-enter the 'set strmden' command with different settings and use different thresholds in the maskout() function.<br><br>Jeff Duda<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div><div class="h5">On Sun, Oct 19, 2014 at 5:11 AM, Olivier TRECA <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:otreca@me.com" target="_blank">otreca@me.com</a>></span> wrote:<br></div></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div><div class="h5"><div style="word-wrap:break-word">Hello,<div><br></div><div>My name is Olivier and I’m from France.
