Greetings, Is there a simple way to get (or plot) the rectangular bounding box defined by an oblique mercator projection? For example, in one figure I'm using -JOa-115.9/33.5/135/9i -R-116.2/33.7/-115.6/33.4r This is a rectangular area, tilted at 135deg. relative to North. I want to show the outline of that area as a line on another plot. Two of the corners are defined by the -R command above, but I need the other two. I could probably do the math by hand (intersections of great circles?), but is there an easier way to do that in GMT?
