Apologies for the bad subject header, it should have been something more
like the above

Hello Jeff, Don, and co,
This is a follow-up from a previous question put forth by Nilesh
Mahajan with whom I'm working at IU.
Our goal is to load a NAM data file in IDV with some display
variables pre-selected for our users. We are currently able to use ISL
to specify what NAM file we want to load, as follows (example)...
<isl>
<datasource
url="http://lead.unidata.ucar.edu:8080/thredds/dodsC/LEAD/model/NCEP/NAM/CONUS_40km/conduit/NAM_CONUS_40km_conduit_20081111_1800.grib2";>
<property name="name" value="NAM Data File" />
</datasource>
</isl>
We have four displays we'd like to create. They are all 2D-grid
contour plan view displays available within NAM data files:
wind speed @ height above ground
dew point temp @ height above ground
temp @ height above ground
pressure reduced to MSL @ MSL
Having reviewed the ISL "creating a display" documentation at
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/idv/release/nightly/docs/userguide/isl/DataAndDisplays.html#display,
our question is, what specific property values do we need to pass in
order to get these displays to load? This was not clear to us.
It looks like we need to add something to the effect of...
<display
type="planviewcontour"
param="windSpeedDisplay">
<property
name="displayCategory"
value="Category 1"/>
<property
name="???help???"
value="???help??"
</display>
<display
type="planviewcontour"
param="dewPointTemperatureDisplay">
<property
name="displayCategory"
value="Category 1"/>
<property
name="???help???"
value="???help??"
</display>
<display
type="planviewcontour"
param="temperatureDisplay">
<property
name="displayCategory"
value="Category 1"/>
<property
name="???help???"
value="???help??"
</display>
<display
type="planviewcontour"
param="pressureDisplay">
<property
name="displayCategory"
value="Category 1"/>
<property
name="???help???"
value="???help??"
</display>
... within the 'datasource' element, and Clearly my version could
use some improvement -- hence this message ;)
Thanks for the help!
