They were never really intended to be used with paneling and such.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">You unfortunately can't modify the size of titles in wrf_xxxx, because they are hard-coded to be a scaled size based on some base font height size. I created a trouble ticket to track this issue to see if we can improve this.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Meanwhile, one thing you might try is before calling wrf_contour, set the gsnCenterString resource to the desired title, and then you can use gsnStringFontHeightF to control the size. This resource also automatically centers the title over your plot.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Let ncl-talk know if gsnCenterString doesn't work.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">--Mary</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, May 28, 2017 at 12:55 AM, Barry Lynn <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:barry.h.lynn@gmail.com" target="_blank">barry.h.lynn@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">and: how do I center these titles.... <div><br></div><div>Thank you for addressing both of my questions.</div></div><div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5"><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, May 28, 2017 at 8:41 AM, Barry Lynn <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:barry.h.lynn@gmail.com" target="_blank">barry.h.lynn@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Hi:<div><br></div><div>I have been trying to adjust (shrink a bit) the height of the font on my panel plots (attached). </div><div><br></div><div>I have tried numerous commands, but none of them have an effect.
