[ncl-talk] Help regarding 'gsLineDashPattern' resource required...

[Alan Brammer]

You were plotting individual segments for each and every time step, you inner do loop and use of gsn_polyline() wasn’t quite what you really wanted.  Those dashes were actually new lines for each internal do loop. 


I cleaned up the script and edited your do loop so it’s much simpler and uses gsn_add_polyline() instead. 

Go through my edited file and make sure you understand what changed and why.  I’d suggest running through one iteration of your days loop with a print(xpt) to realise why you were getting the plot you were getting.

Attached are the files for the ncl script, the trajectories and the graphics over which im working.
