[ncl-talk] Changing title font size of panel plot

[Toni Klemm]

Hello!

I am creating a panel plot and need to change the title font size because it is too long (see plot attached). 

However, changing the value of tiMainFontHeightF in the script doesn’t change the font height. Is the paneling preventing me from changing the font size, or do I need to add another command to enable it? I checked “Title Resources” (https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Graphics/Resources/ti.shtml#tiMainFontHeightF <https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Graphics/Resources/ti.shtml#tiMainFontHeightF>) and “PlotManager” (https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/HLUs/Classes/PlotManager.shtml <https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/HLUs/Classes/PlotManager.shtml>) which sounded like under some circumstances the font size might not be changeable. But I didn’t really understand what it meant or what to do. 

I also included the part of my script about the paneling of the individual plots (4) below. I appreciate any help!

Thank you,
Toni
