Re: problem with text strings

Hi Mike,

I believe that setting txString will override the
gsnLeft/Center/RightString resources. FYI: You do have the option to
move the gsnLeftString downward by using gsnLeftStringOrthogonalPosF:
http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Graphics/Resources/gsn.shtml#gsnLeftStringOrthogonalPosF

Assuming you do want to keep your gsnLeft/RightString resorces intact,
and that you aren't using gsnCenterString you can set gsnCenterString
and use the Orthogonal and Parallel resources to move the text to
wherever you want:
http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Graphics/Resources/gsn.shtml#gsnCenterStringOrthogonalPosF
http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Graphics/Resources/gsn.shtml#gsnCenterStringParallelPosF

Finally, if that doesn't work for you I would just go ahead and use
gsn_text_ndc and manually set the text...

Hope that helps.
