[ncl-talk] Changing the size of panel plot elements

Fri Oct 25 13:16:42 MDT 2019

Hi Toni,
Yes, you can do this two ways:
1 - Adjust the gsnPanelBottom setting downwards until the plots are roughly
the same size.
2 - Panel the bottom four plots as you are doing, but manually panel the
top two plots using the gsnPanelDebug information to set vpXF/vpWidthF
settings appropriately as is shown in panel example #39.
