Normally, that is not necessary unless the resources gsnDraw and gsnFrame are set to False (their defaults are True). As you likely know, its a language idiom to set these two resources to False when wanting to overlay additional graphics on top of a plot, and then after all drawing functions have been called, one performs this little idiom:<br><br></div> ....<br></div> draw(plot) <br></div> frame(wks)<br><br></div>Which draws the plot and all overlays and advances the "frame" (page/next-image/etc).<br><br></div>Pure speculation on my part, but perhaps the explicit call to frame(wks) when gsnFrame is already True is the issue (it shouldn't be, but...). Maybe try removing this call? Or add a call to "draw(mp)" just before the "frame(wks)". <br><br></div>Rick<br><div><br><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div><div class="m_206750751123700161h5">On Sun, Feb 19, 2017 at 12:07 AM, Barry Lynn <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:barry.h.lynn@gmail.com" target="_blank">barry.h.lynn@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br></div></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div><div class="m_206750751123700161h5"><div dir="ltr">Hi:<div><br></div><div>When I plot the namelist.wps as a pdf the station lines appear.
