[ncl-talk] custom string labels in time-axis

[Adam Phillips]

Hi Tabish,
Yes, see tickmark example 2 here:
http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/tickmarks.shtml#ex2

Note though that the values set in tmXBValues must be within the range of
times specified in the x-input in gsn_csm_xy. For example, if you create
your plot like this:
plot(1) = gsn_csm_xy(wks,ispan(1950,2005,1),arr,res)
your times run from 1950 to 2005, and your tmXBValues need to be set within
that range.

If you have any further questions let ncl-talk know.
Adam
