filled contour bug (again) [message #3791] Wed, 08 March 1995 13:09

Problem:
map_set, /cylindrical
contour, /overplot /fill
doesnt always fill all the contours

last week I posted a clumsy work-around for this, and someone told
me that
contour, /overplot, /cell_fill
works better, which it does, thank you.

Now i need the same thing to work for (south polar stereographic)
map_set, -90.0, 0.0, /stereo
but /cell_fill has a bug in it and /fill doesnt fill all the contour
levels, as usual.

The /cell_fill starts drawing from lat = -90 and works its way outwards
in a circle; it looks great until the end, when apparently the last set of
fills clobbers the drawing. I tried working with /limit, but that seems to
make things worse (or maybe theres a secret to it). /limit seems to want
a rectangle in lat, lon coords, but that doesnt really work in a polar
projection.

1) has anyone had and/or solved this problem?
2) can anything intelligent be said about what options
work with what projections?
