Hi All,


I am contouring GRIB2 data (ICING) and gdplot3 is producing a scale ("color 
bar") for a filled contour which shows an unexpected value.


The attached image scaleProblem1.PNG has a red circle around the problem.  The 
highest value in the field is 56.  The gradient in the color bar shows a white 
box for the range 60-70.  I would expect the next grayscale value in FLINE.


The parameter FINT is:

    5/10/70

The attachment scaleProblem2.PNG shows that the chart looks OK if I change FINT:

    5/10/60

However, the maximum value could be above 60.


I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.
