Calling draw tells NCL to draw the graphic to the workstation, while calling frame tells NCL to finish the current frame/page and to move to the next one. gsn_panel and gsn_csm_contour* functions implicitly call both of those procedures unless the resource list passed in specify otherwise. </div><div><br></div><div>To simplify your script highlighting draw/frame resources and procedures:</div><div>res = True</div><div>res@gsnDraw = False</div><div>res@gsnFrame = False</div><div>...</div><div><div>res2 = True</div><div>res2@gsnDraw = False </div><div>res2@gsnFrame = False</div></div><div>...</div><div>plot(0) = gsn_csm_contour_map(wks, diff_means_lead0,res)<br></div><div>plot0 = gsn_csm_contour(wks, prob_lead0, res2)<br></div><div><div>overlay(plot(0),plot0)</div><div>draw(plot(0))</div></div><div>; repeat the above 4 lines for plot(1) and plot(2)</div><div>frame(wks)<br></div><div><br></div><div><div>resP = True</div><div>resP@gsnPanelXWhiteSpacePercent = 5</div><div>gsn_panel(wks, plot, (/1, 3/), resP)</div></div><div><br></div><div>The above calls draw 3 times, and frame once, before gsn_panel is called (where gsnFrame/gsnDraw = True). This results in 2 pages in your output workstation. </div><div><br></div><div>Try this:</div><div><div>res = True</div><div>res@gsnDraw = False</div><div>res@gsnFrame = False</div><div>...</div><div><div>res2 = True</div><div>res2@gsnDraw = False </div><div>res2@gsnFrame = False</div></div><div>...</div><div>plot(0) = gsn_csm_contour_map(wks, diff_means_lead0,res)<br></div><div>plot0 = gsn_csm_contour(wks, prob_lead0, res2)<br></div><div><div>overlay(plot(0),plot0)</div><div>; repeat the above 3 lines for plot(1) and plot(2)</div></div><div><br></div><div><div>resP = True</div><div>resP@gsnPanelXWhiteSpacePercent = 5</div><div>gsn_panel(wks, plot, (/1, 3/), resP)</div></div></div><div><br></div><div>Hope that all makes sense.
