So to reiterate, I need to save the 'q shades' output from a forecast hour with valid data and then use that same output for a forecast hour that has no data, (instead of running 'q shades' again on the forecast hour with no data) therefore preserving the desired
colorbar on the plot.</div>

The colorbar scripts generally run 'q shades' and then parse the output in the 'result' variable. I have worked around this by setting up a plot with the contour levels and colors I want, then saving the output from 'q shades' in a script variable for later
use:<br>
'q shades'<br>
_shdinfo = result<br>
<br>
Then I append a modified copy of the colorbar script as a function in my main drawing script that uses _shdinfo instead of running 'q shades' again.
