[McIDAS #YXU-859602]: Can I recreate this radar map in McIDAS with a large GIF or JPEG file size?



Hi Gilbert,

This is done with the MAG= keyword on IMGDISP.  Compare the following two
example invocations:

<login as the user that runs McIDAS>
cd $MCDATA
mcenv -f 1@2600x6000
dataloc.k ADD NEXRCOMP adde.cise-nsf.gov
imgdisp.k NEXRCOMP/1KN0Q-NAT LINELE=1500 2368 PLACE=C MAG=1 EU=BREF
map.k FILE=OUTVHRES MCOL=2
batch.k GILBERT.BAT
frmsave.k 1 nexrcomp_1kn0q-nat_1.gif
exit

mcenv -f 1@2600x6000
dataloc.k ADD NEXRCOMP adde.cise-nsf.gov
imgdisp.k NEXRCOMP/1KN0Q-NAT LINELE=1500 2368 PLACE=C MAG=-2 EU=BREF
map.k FILE=OUTVHRES MCOL=2
batch.k GILBERT.BAT
frmsave.k 1 nexrcomp_1kn0q-nat_2.gif
exit

The other thing to do is make your frame size large enough to hold the entire
image.

Cheers,

Tom
