Hello:

I can't figure out why I am getting this error.  The program worked fine
until I tried to thicken one line.

I don't see on the example page where I am suppose to define "contour."  I
was trying to thicken the 5500 m contour line on a set of maps....

Thanks.

warning:Attempt to reference attribute (contour) which is undefined
