<div dir="ltr">There are a couple ways you can do this in the looping sense. You can re-arrange the plots in the gsn_panel call...<div><br></div><div>gsn_panel(wks,(/plotpanel(0),plotpanel(4),plotpanel(1),plotpanel(5),..../),(/4,2/),pres)</div>
<div><br></div><div>Or you could devise a counter that would handle this alternation with a bit of math, and then just assign each plot to the graphics array per its panel index.</div><div><br></div><div>panel_idx = ((phase-1)%2*4)+((phase-1)/2)</div>
<div>plotpanel(panel_idx) = plot</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>P.S. make sure ncl-talk is in your reply-to when you respond (usually a reply-all works just fine), just so everyone can keep up with the conversation and others can help as well.</div>

<div dir="ltr">Hi,<br><br>I am doing an MJO study. I am plotting the mean geopotential height and wind vector anomalies in different phases of MJO. I plotted all the individual plots, and even tried to do a panel plot. However, the finished panel plot draws the individual plots from left to right, top to bottom, like:<br>
<br>Phase1 Phase2<br>Phase3 Phase4<br>Phase5 Phase6<br>Phase7 Phase8<br><br>I want to plot them from top to bottom, left to right, like:<br>Phase1 Phase5<br>Phase2 Phase6<br>Phase3 Phase7<br>Phase4 Phase8<br><br>However, I cannot find useful information on the Internet. The most relevant one is <a href="http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/Scripts/panel_12.ncl" target="_blank">http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/Scripts/panel_12.ncl</a> this one. I thought to plot phases1-4 as the first (left) panel, and phases 5-8 as the second (right) panel. But I have the common label bar and title for all 8 plots and I don't want them to appear twice, and I want to place them in the center but not only left or right. Is there a convenient way to draw the plots in the way I want, i.e. from top to bottom, left to right with only one common title and label bar in the centre?<br>
<br>Regards,<br>John<br></div>
