[ncl-talk] gsnMaximize space above and bellow figure Re: figure orientation and gsnMaximize

[Rick Brownrigg]

Hi Kevin,

For what its worth, if you are wanting 5.1.1 behavior, and if you are not
using any advanced color capabilities introduced since 5.1.1, then a
workstation type one of "oldeps"/"oldpdf"/"oldps" might get you your
preferred behavior.

FWIW...
