Hi A.J.,<br>
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 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>
<a href="http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Graphics/Resources/cn.shtml#cnLowLabelString" 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>That worked, however, is there a way to put the
minimum/maximum values under the L/H symbols? Right now, only
the "L" for low shows up.</div>

<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>
<a href="http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Support/talk_archives/all/0877.html" target="_blank">http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Support/talk_archives/all/0877.html</a><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>
