Re: [ferret_users] [Ferret] creating color palettes
Hi Zhen,
If your ferret_paths file is proper, there should not
be any problem with the new .spk file added to your
~ferret_v5.81/ppl/ directory. Please check the following lines
in your ferret_paths file : toward the begininng, the defenition
of FER_DIR, it should be
setenv FER_DIR /home/zhen/ferret_v581
Then towards the end of ferret_paths, FER_PALETTE is defined & it
should be like
setenv FER_PALETTE ". $FER_DIR/ppl"
Sometimes in your ferret_paths file, executable will be pointing to
/home/zhen/ferret_v581/bin and palettes will be to some other old
versions of Ferret. Check it out.
Regarding the "color-friendly-palettes" : All of them should be
present in the ferret5.81/ppl directory by default. If not get
fresh tar.Z files from pmel/noaa site and install it again.
Hope this helps,
Regards,
Jaison
