@aashish24 are we talking GUI here? I don't see it in my GUI. Make sure you remove your .uvcdat directory first to get rid of older versions.

[aashish24]

I did. Does it work for you?

[doutriaux1]

sorry I was looking at boxfill, I do see it in isofill and it does hang/plots nothing. I can work on it now.
thx

I guess you have to pass the second argument as string "90"

WE should make sure to included this in ctest.

fix on its way

[doutriaux1]

ok I "fixed" it but just like #587 it's one of this "need-to-know" projection. I think the one we really want is not "polar stereographic" but "polar (non gctp)" I'm going to edit the default initial.attributes to reflect that.
See picture of "working" polar stereographic...

[doutriaux1]

and now with the bug fix and the projection type of the projection named "polar" being switch to what vcs are used to we get:

[doutriaux1]

fixed in issue_586_polar_proj_broken_bad_param_setting
@aashish24 please review and merge, started off clean state not the corrupted one you're reviewing right now

[aashish24]

Looks good to me. Merged
