[IDV #RTQ-197798]: cross section plot in pressure

["Unidata IDV Support" <support-idv@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi-

> info into meter as I know. I wonder if there is a way to prohibit this
> pressure-height conversion?

At this point, the scale shows the height of the pressure in
the standard atmosphere since that is a linear scale.  You might
try using the Transect display which has the vertical scale in both
height and pressure.  See the section of the workshop on this at:
