[ncl-talk] SKEW-T line colors

[Ioana Colfescu]

Hi again,
I found the options to change that in the same script in :
if (localOpts at DrawIsobar) then
      gsOpts                   = True
      gsOpts at gsLineDashPattern = 0            ; solid
      gsOpts at gsLineColor       = colTan
      gsOpts at gsLineThicknessF  = 3.5
     ;gsOpts at gsLineLabelFontColor    = colTan
     ;gsOpts at gsLineLabelFontHeightF  = 0.0125

Thanks,
Ioana
