Hi A.J.,<br>
Try setting:<br>
res@cnConpackParams = (/ "HLX:1, HLY:1" /)<br>
In testing it seems like lower numbers increase the number of
high/low labels.<br>
<br>
As far as cnHighLabelString / cnLowLabelString settings go: The
default (for highs) is "H~B~$ZDV$~E~", thus not setting the resource
is the same as setting it to "H~B~$ZDV$~E~". If you are happy enough
with the format of the high/low labels there's no need to decipher
what that coding means. But if you're interested see here:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Graphics/function_code.shtml">http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Graphics/function_code.shtml</a><br>
~B~ = subscript, ~E~ = stop the subscripting, and $ZDV$ is equal to
the identified high/low value and that value will be formatted
according to the cnHighLabelFormat resource:<br>

The lows and highs with the numbers appeared finally.
However, it does not put H/L s for every high and low.
I tried increasing the value for </span><font

however, it did not change anything. So, for certain
times my "low of interest" has an "L" associeated with
it, but then for certain later times there is no L
within the "low" but yet there are definitely contours
around the "low". How can I get it to put a H/L stamp
for every high/low ? </font></div>

You are telling NCL to not label the min/max
values by setting the
cnHighLabelString/cnLowLabelString resources =
"H"/"L".. <br>
<br>
According to the documentation here:<br>
<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Graphics/Resources/cn.shtml#cnHighLabelString"
target="_blank">http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Graphics/Resources/cn.shtml#cnHighLabelString</a><br>

target="_blank">http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Graphics/Resources/cn.shtml#cnLowLabelString</a><br>
the defaults are:<br>
res@cnHighLabelString = "H~B~$ZDV$~E~" <br>
res@cnLowLabelString = "L~B~$ZDV$~E~"<br>
(note that I replaced the : with ~ as that is
what most people have their function code set
to..)<br>
<br>
Try setting the resources as I have it above and
see if that works.. If not, please let ncl-talk
know..<br>

<div>Hi A.J.,<br>
I don't see anything amiss with
your script. Take a look at this
ncl-talk email from the archive:<br>

Specifically try setting
cnConpackParams, and see if you
can get the labels on there. <br>
If that resource doesn't help
let ncl-talk know.<br>
