[ncl-talk] Paneling unequal number of plots in different rows

[Dave Allured - NOAA Affiliate]

Gsn_panel can not be used to panel plots of different sizes in the same
call.  This is clearly stated in the function documentation.

Example panel_14 demonstrates Dennis's suggestion.  This is close to what
you want.  It shows how to make two plots that are the same size with
gsn_panel, then add more plots using viewport resources vpXF, vpYF,
vpWidthF, and vpHeightF.  Also see panel_9, panel_42 and panel_43.
