[ncl-talk] Contour fill doesn't work...

Dear Dennis,

There is something strange. The same script I have copied from you and
tried, still it doesn't plot the contour filled color. It gives the figures
as attached here.

Hi Rick,
It gives same blank plot (contour without filling colors) in the X11 and
PDF workstation as well.

I am surprise that it plots the 'color bar' but doesn't plot the contour
filled with colors.

It may be something with the version and OS I am using.

Thanks. Regards
S.
