<div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">Hi Barry,<div>If I had to guess, it is that the arrow function writes the gsn_add_polyline output as attributes named arr,arr1, and arr2 to the plt array that is to be returned by the function. If you call the function multiple times and pass all the graphical output to the same logical array named "array", each time you call arrow, array@arr, array@arr1 and array@arr2 will get overwritten. To get around this, you should alter the arrow function to use the unique_string function.</div><div><a href="https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Built-in/unique_string.shtml">https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Built-in/unique_string.shtml</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>For an example of how to do this, see polymarker example #18:</div><div><a href="https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/polyg.shtml#ex18">https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/polyg.shtml#ex18</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>For example, change this:</div><div>plt@arr = gsn_add_polyline(wks,plt,xpts,ypts,res)<br></div><div>to this:</div><div>str = unique_string("arr")<br></div><div>plt@$str$ = gsn_add_polyline(wks,plt,xpts,ypts,res)<br></div><div><br></div><div>and do the same for the other two calls to gsn_add_polyline.</div><div>Hope that helps!</div><div>Adam</div><div><br></div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Jan 14, 2020 at 9:45 AM Barry Lynn via ncl-talk <<a href="mailto:ncl-talk@ucar.edu">ncl-talk@ucar.edu</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><font face="georgia, serif">Hi:</font><div><font face="georgia, serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="georgia, serif">I have a bit of a mystery:</font></div><div><font face="georgia, serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="georgia, serif">I have a loop where I am calling gsn_add_polymarker.
