Dear Maurice,
Although I don't normally recommend this, you can download the
latest gsn_code.ncl and gsn_csm.ncl from:
http://ngwww.ucar.edu/ngdoc/ng/ug/ncl/gsun/scripts/gsn_code.ncl
http://ngwww.ucar.edu/ngdoc/ng/ug/ncl/gsun/scripts/gsn_csm.ncl
These versions will become the default on the regular NCL download
page soon.
If I understand your request correctly, then we don't currently have
that capability. You can only color the bars with one color above a
certain reference line, and another color below the reference
line. The only time you can use different colors for different bars is
when you use gsn_histogram, and I don't think this is what you are
talking about. Just in case, though, you can get more information on
gsn_histogram at:
http://www.cgd.ucar.edu/csm/support/CSM_Graphics/histo.shtml
For more information on bar charts, see:
http://www.cgd.ucar.edu/csm/support/CSM_Graphics/bar.shtml
I will add your request to our NCL enhancement list, but I can't make any
guarantees about when it will get added. It usually depends on how
popular this request is, and whether we have the time to fit it in.
Cheers,
