Hi, I have a little problem when I use grdimage and the @earth\_relief\_01s.grd and 03s to plot a particular region, it does not appear complete. I do not have this problem when I use a lower resolution earth \_relief grid. The missing part is on the top of the figure below.

 ![zona_estudio_alarcon](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex047/uploads/gmt/original/1X/1778a6c4d549a1f47860c3fabe1323de5e122efd.png)  
This is the code:  
#!/usr/bin/env bash  
format=“png”  
output=“zona\_estudio\_alarcon”  
RR2=“-R-108.444/-108.3724/23.53499/23.6057”

gmt begin $output $format  
gmt basemap $RR2 -JM15c -B -BwsNE  
gmt grdimage @earth\_relief\_01s.grd -Cdem.cpt -V  
gmt end show

Thanks

I can recreate the problem but would be helpful if you posted your dem.cpt.

This problem was fixed yesterday in master; see [https://github.com/GenericMappingTools/gmt/pull/3211](https://github.com/GenericMappingTools/gmt/pull/3211) for details. Your case should work fine after updating. Thanks for pointing this problem out.
