[ncl-talk] trouble making plot legend with a loop

[Guido Cioni]

Hey Adam, 
I’m not sure whether it is right or not but it seems to me that the lines defining the plot area are thicker than they are supposed to. Are you by any change calling the draw(plot) twice, maybe by forgetting to set a false resource, advancing the frame or overlying different plots? 

Maybe the entire script would help, or at least the part where you’re setting the resources for the legend or calling the draw(plot).
