[ncl-talk] Change LabelBar size in the pres-height plot

[Mary Haley]

Bo,

My apologies. Apparently this was a bug I fixed and it won't be available
until 6.4.0 is released.

It's a very simple fix, so I've attached it here.  It only had a one line
change.

To load this fixed script, the top of your own script needs to look
something like this:

load "$NCARG_ROOT/lib/ncarg/nclscripts/csm/gsn_code.ncl"
load "$NCARG_ROOT/lib/ncarg/nclscripts/csm/gsn_csm.ncl"
load "./gsn_csm_vector_pres_hgt_fix.ncl"

Nothing else needs to change in your script.

--Mary
