Hi Maria, I don't think there should be any problem using a /LEVELS setting along with SHAKEY. Did you use it after a /SET qualifier? Here's an example, using the 3rd argument of shakey to set the label size. 0.12 is probably bigger than you would really want. yes? use coads_climatologyDepending on the numbers on your plot, the larger labels might run off the edge of the page. You can set a larger margin using the "go margins" script. yes? go/help margins ! see the comments at the start of the script Ansley On 10/4/2011 9:07 AM, Maria Custódio wrote: Olá Paulo, Muito obrigada (thanks so much!) I tryed this but the problem is when I used the shakey I couldn't do it this: levels=(-inf)(-4.0,4,0.5)(inf) I just can determine the number of levels, for example: Levels=10 Do someone know other way for do this?
