<p style="font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:16px">Hi ,<br>
</p>
<p style="font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:16px">I wrote a very short code to plot regional map. But when I tried to show the top tickmarks and labels, the upper part of the plot seems be overlaied. I tried to set tmXBLabelsOn
= True, tmXBOn = False, it displays bottom things ok. When I set tmXTLabelsOn = True, tmXTOn = False. Nothing displayed on top.<br>
</p>
<p style="font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:16px">Here is the code and plot.<br>
</p>
<p style="font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:16px">Anyone knows how to fix that? Thank you.<br>
