<br>
<br>
Attached, you find a screenshot of a plot produced by   ncl 6.3.0  (Ubuntu 16.04.01) .<br>
<br>
There are hundreds of very fine, rectangularly-spaced, vertical and horizontal white lines, likely exactly marking the boundaries of each grid cell of my input field (a netcdf file).<br>
<br>
How can I disable these fine white lines?<br>
<br>
They appear when I use  &quot;CellFill&quot;.<br>
<br>
Currently, I create  &quot;PDF&quot; output with NCL.  I also tried &quot;PS&quot;, same problem here.<br>
<br>
Here is an extraction of the ressources I use in my ncl plot script:<br>
<br>
   varR@cnFillOn     = T ;<br>
           varR@cnFillOpacityF=1<br>
           varR@cnFillMode=&quot;CellFill&quot;<br>
            varR@cnCellFillEdgeColor=-1<br>
            varR@cnCellFillMissingValEdgeC<wbr>olor=-1<br>
<br>
By the way, I figured out that, if I set the    @cnCellFillEdgeColor=    to a value of 0 or 1,  all these lines become really thick and eg. of bold white or black color. This is not what I want but maybe these ressources are somehow linked to my problem/solution?<br>
<br>
I like to let all cell-edge-lines disappear in my plot, so if I set this option to    @cnCellFillEdgeColor=-1<br>
but the lines are still there (attached), they do not disappear.<br>
<br>
Any idea/help on that?<br>
