[ncl-talk] Not able to Resize Panel Plots

[Yan-Ting Chen]

Hi all,

I have a problem on how to resize panel plots on NCL v6.4. I want to put
several plots in a panel. In order to enlarge to plots, I set res at wkHeight
and res at wkWidth to get a larger workstation. Although I do get a larger
window, the plots are as small as they are in a default 1024x1024 window.
What I get is, a panel with lots of white margin. How can I really get
larger chart?

I've tried several methods:
- figtype = "x11", figtype at wkWidth = 1600, figtype at wkHeight = 1600 (I tried
several combination, like 1024, 1200, 1600, 2000)................much
margin left. Figure is the same size as 1024x1024 one. (see attachment)
- resL at vpXF = 0.08; resR at vpXF=0.53................still much margin left.
- resL at vpHeightF=0.7.................aspect ratio changed but basically it
doesn't cross the implicit border.
- resP at gsnMaximize = True..............Although the tutorial suggests this
way, I found it not change result.

The figures I attach are with following settings related to resize:
res at wkHeight = 1024
res at wkWidth = 1024
(and another one with height 1200 and width 1600. 1600x1600 one's output
looks same 1024x1024 on png file.)

resL at vpXF = 0.08
resL at vpHeightF = -0.5
resL at vpWidthF = 0.6

resR at vpXF = -.53
resR at vpHeightF = -0.5
resR at vpWidthF = 0.6
resP at gsnMaximize = True

Non of them work. How can I squeeze the margins?

Thanks for your kind reply.
