<div dir="ltr">Hi Barry,<div>Without being able to run your script it is difficult to say why the plots are changing sizes. My first guess would be a change in the size of your titles, subtitles, tickmark labels, or labelbar, and that at first glance doesn't seem to be the case. (If I had to guess it would have to do with the labelbar, but that's just a guess.) You might have to go through a few rounds of debugging. I would try to following:</div><div>1 - Set vpWidthF = 0.6, vpHeightF = 0.6, vpXF = 0.2 and vpYF = 0.8. These should be the defaults, but setting them just in case will not hurt.</div><div>2 - Move the labelbar to the bottom. If that fixes it you might want to draw the labelbar manually. (See the labelbar example page.)</div><div>3 - Comment out pmTickMarkDisplayMode = "Always" as that shouldn't be needed anyway.</div><div>4 - Try not setting he lbTitleString or setting lbTitleOn = True</div><div>5 - No need to call gsn_panel when you are only drawing one panel, set gsnDraw and gsnFrame = True and remove all references to panres and the gsn_panel call.</div><div>6 - Set gsnCenterString / gsnLeftString / gsnRightString = "".</div><div>7 - set tiMainOn = False to turn off the main title. </div><div><br></div><div>In summary, I am recommending simplifying your script to check to see what is causing the issue. Keep removing items (resources) until the issue resolves, and then investigate..</div><div>Hope that helps!</div><div>Adam</div><div><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Feb 23, 2018 at 12:48 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">Hello:<div><br></div><div>The program attached maps GFS precipitation amounts. </div><div><br></div><div>Please be aware that it reads in the times from an external file instead of off the metadata (which can be done).</div><div><br></div><div>Anyway, when the times are listed at 0200 and 0800 the maps sizes are smaller than when listed as 1400 and 2000.</div><div><br></div><div>Each contains 4 digits for the time.</div><div><br></div><div>I am hoping someone can suggest why my map sizes are changing.</div><div><br></div><div>Oh, just to make things really interesting.
