Hi,
Please, I want a mesh plot showing the bathymetry of my region of interest. When i run the script below i get black mesh plot instead of a rainbow or geo mesh. What am I doing wrong? Pardon my ignorance please.

gmt begin 3D png

gmt grdcontour my_gog.nc -Wthinnest,dimgray -C1000 -Gd3c -A1000+f4+o -p130/30

gmt coast -p -B4 -BNESW -Gdimgray -TdjBR+o0.3c+w3c+l

Assuming your grid is large (large number of rows and columns) you are mostly seing black mesh lines. Try -Qi100 first, then -Qi300 perhaps. Or see -T.
