filled contour plot with contour lines

Hi Peter,

Thanks for taking the time to consider the problem. I realize the procedure
is not reproducible. I use a 4 dimensional netCDF file (4.2 GB) in size to
pull data into this process. Nobody in their right mind should work with
such things. It's a spatial temporal database with 10 years of daily data
in a irregular area spanning 405 x 287 cells.

Anyway, I tried your suggestion adding a { in front of the for loop and a
closing } following the last line.

It did not work.

Aren't you missing a set of parentheses?
I can't run your code since it's not reproducible, but to
my aging eyes it seems that you need a set of '{}' around
the contents of your loop:

  for(j in 1:(varsize[4]-1)) { loop stuff }

Peter Ehlers

I'm stumped,  can anyone find my error in this sequence.

  for(j in 1:(varsize[4]-1))
       temp<- get.var.ncdf(nc=input,
varid="p_foraging",c(1,1,j),c(varsize[1],varsize[2],1))
          filled.contour(x, y, temp, color = terrain.colors,
              plot.title = title(main = paste("Everglades Wood Stork
Foraging Potential \nYear", (2000+j)),
              xlab = "UTM East", ylab = "UTM North") ,
              plot.axes = { contour(temp, add=T)
                 axis(1, seq(450000 , 580000, by = 10000))
                 axis(2, seq(2800000,4000000, by = 10000)) },
              key.title = title(main="Probability") ,
              key.axes = axis(4, seq(0 , 1 , by = 0.1))


The routine will work in a modified form without adding the coordinates
(the axis lines) but when I include these the routine produces various
errors, such as "dimension mismatch", or "unexpected end encountered."

I tried to follow the example on filled.contour help page.

Thanks in advance
    Steve
