Hi Frank,
Thank you f
Your script was most of the way there, it just needed a few extra resources and a resizing of the plot as it was running off of the right hand side of the page.
You had res/res2 at vpWidthF set to .85 and vpXF set to .15, which resulted in the plot running from .15->1.05 in x-axis NDC space. (The valid NDC range is 0-1.)

I changed the res/res2 at vpWidthF = .75, set res2 at tmYLOn = False, set res2 at tmYLLabelsOn = False, and all looks good to me.
I have attached a modified version of your script and the resulting image.
Adam

Hello Adam,

yes the path leads to the target. Thanks

But I have the problem to shift the 2. axis (new, res2@) to the right side of the Box plot. What is wrong in the script?

Thanks in advance
Frank

Hi Frank,
No there is not. However, you could use the vpXF/vpYF/vpWidthF/vpHeightF resources to set exactly where you want the boxplot to be drawn, and then specify the same resources, turn off all borders/tickmarks/labels except the Y-Axis, create a blank plot using gsn_csm_blank_plot, and draw one on top of another:
https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Graphics/Interfaces/gsn_csm_blank_plot.shtml


Tick mark example #11 is similar, but overlays one plot on another using the overlay procedure.
http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/tickmarks.shtml#ex11

You will not want to use overlay, but you will want to set gsnDraw = True (=default) and gsnFrame = False in both resource lists.

bres = True   ; boxplot resource list
bres at gsnFrame = False
bres at vpXF = 0.2
bres at vpYF = 0.8
...
plot = boxplot(....

res = True   ; blank plot resource list
res at gsnFrame = False
res at tmYUseLeft = False
res at tmYROn = False
res at tmYRLabelsOn = False
res at tmXBOn = False
res at tmXBLabelsOn = False
...    ; other tm resources may be needed.
res at trYMinF = ..
res at trYMaxF = ..
res at tmYLMode = "Explicit"
res at tmYLValues = (/.../)
res at tmYLLabels = (/.../)

bplot = gsn_csm_blank_plot(...
frame(wks)

Hope that gets you going in the right direction!
Adam

        Hello,



        is there a function to have a 2nd y-axis with boxplots? Something like gsn_csm_xy2



        Thanks in advance

        Frank
