[ncl-talk] Plotting a variable's isosurface in 3D by tdez3d

[Mary Haley]

Armagan,

In general, we recommend that people not use our 3D plotting package, as it
is rather old and not anywhere near as developed as other free packages out
there.

If you are trying to plot WRF data in 3D, then I recommend VAPOR, which is
tailored for plotting WRF data in 3D:

https://www.vapor.ucar.edu

If you really need to use TDEZ3D for other reasons, then please include the
full error message you're getting from NCL.

Thanks,

--Mary
