[IDV #CRK-901738]: maskGrid



Jason,

I can now confirm the problem you are seeing. The primary grid is stuck in time
while the mask moves along. Correct?

This issue is at the very least unintuitive behavior and may be a bug.

We are somewhat out of ideas. I would encourage you to ask your question at
address@hidden. Perhaps someone there will know.

Best,

Unidata IDV Support
