I have created a shapefile with all the shapes but I get a wrong result when trying to plot a hoop shape around a small island, all the shape is filled by color, the center of the island too. Only the coast should be filled, not the island, and I'm wondering if this is a GrADS bug or there is something that I'm doing in the wrong way.
