[ncl-talk] box-plot changes

Hi everybody,

just to report a funny little change that must have happened at some point when switching between ncl versions recently, because I have not encountered this before: 

It appears that box plots now include bottom x labels for the first and last ticks too. From what was just the specified labels on the number of boxes drawn, say three (in example 1 : Control, -2Xna, 2Xna), it is now five (1e+20, Control, -2Xna, 2Xna, 1e+20), with the first and last corresponding to no box plots. 

Found it as I’m doing box plots for 12 monthly distributions, and despite specifying 12 tmXBLabels, I get 14 actual labels written, with the first and last not being that terribly welcome on the plot… Any thoughts of how to suppress these “outliers”?

Thanks,
Caspar

PS As a test, I re-ran example 1 and get this:
