plotgrids.ncl

I wish to do a nested domain simulation so I've written the namelist accordingly. Now I want to see how the domain looks like. for this I am using plotgrids.ncl. But it is persistently giving me errors, I tried tweaking some parameters, using old settings (I am using WRF-4.1.1). currently, i am getting this error (I've attatched a screenshot). Also when I add type = "x11" it doesnt work, so I have to save the image as png and then open. I am atttatching namelist and plotgrid scripts as well for your referance.

The error message indicates that your domain settings are incorrect. Please try the following:

i_parent_start = 0, 11, 17,


j_parent_start = 0, 17, 15,


e_we = 81, 49, 25,


e_sn = 81, 49, 25,

Also, please take a look at the document https://www2.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/users/tutorial/presentation_pdfs/201907/werner_nesting.pdf

It describes how to set up nesting domains,
