Hello I am trying to set a map with high resolutoin continent outlines. I'm coding as follows (for a sub region, specified by limit): IDL> map_set, limit=[47,-8,60,7], continents = 1, highres=1 but get an error message: % Compiled module: MAP_SET. % Keyword HIGHRES not allowed in call to: MAP_SET % Execution halted at: $MAIN$ All the documentation i have indicates highres is a valid keyword, so long as the continents keyword is set to 1 , which it is. The contents of my resource/maps directory is as follows: drwxr-xr-x 2 root users 134 2007-11-08 20:15 high drwxr-xr-x 2 root users 126 2007-11-08 20:15 low -rw-r--r-- 1 root users 902 2007-11-08 20:15 README.TXT drwxr-xr-x 2 root users 4096 2007-11-08 20:15 shape -rw-r--r-- 1 root users 326816 2007-11-08 20:15 supmap.dat with high-res information apparently in the 'high' directory. I should be all set right? why I can't specify the keyword? any help/thoughts greatly appreciated. thanks. Craig
