Hi: I am using the following code to produce a map in high resolution. I would like to seperate the land surface and the sea surface by different fill patterns. However the following does not fill the islands but does fill the lakes: ; northern germany + danish islands --> mc = [11.7, 53.8] & dl=2. map_set, /CYLINDRICAL $ , LIMIT= [mc[1]-dl,mc[0]-dl,mc[1]+dl,mc[0]+dl] $ , /WHOLE_MAP $ , XMARGIN=1.0 $ , YMARGIN=1.0 MAP_CONTINENTS, MLINETHICK=3, /HIRES, COASTS=1 MAP_CONTINENTS, FILL_CONTINENTS=2, /HIRES, COASTS=1 $ , MLINESTYLE=0, MLINETHICK=1, ORIENTATION=-45, SPACING=.1 END I tried to modify the MAP_CONTINENTS routine but I did not succeed. The best I could get was islands filled, but some of the sea surface too. Any suggestions?
