Map_Set Question [message #8266] Fri, 21 February 1997 00:00

I am trying to create a map from 20S to 55N and from 100E to 100W (across the date
line). After playing around with the limit for Map_Set, I came up with the
following call:

map_set,0,180,limit=[-20,-280,55,-100],/cont

Well, it kind of works, except the outline for Indonesia and Australia are
missing. I do get outlines for some small islands in the South Pacific, but
nothing south of the equator along the left (western) boundary.

I have to admit that I find the calling arguments to map_set highly confusing and
even after reading the documentation various times, I fail to see what the heck I
am doing wrong.

Any help on this will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
