<br>
I am trying to plot the same string "tiMainString", one using<br>
"res@tiMainString =" for the title of a global plot and one using<br>
"res2@tiMainString =" for the title of a regional plot centered over<br>
CONUS. At the top of my ncl script, I set res2 = res. I do not have<br>
any issue plotting the global and regional fields using<br>
res@gsnLeftString and res2@gsnLeftString, but:<br>
<br>
I am able to plot the correct main title for the global map using<br>
res@tiMainString but for the regional map using res2@tiMainString, I<br>
get a "2" for the main tile instead of the actual title. Printing<br>
res@tiMainString before calling gsn_csm_contour_map is correct, and<br>
the regional pdf file is correct as well, besides the main title? I am<br>
not sure what is going on, and why the correct "res2" title is not<br>
plotted correctly.<br>
<br>
My script is in<br>
/glade/scratch/laura/MPASprojects.2016/2016-04-26_00/plots/plots_mpas.t2m.mynn38.ncl<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Laura<br>
