Re: skipping tickmarks

Hi Mateus,

Take a look at example #2 on the tickmarks applications page:

http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/tickmarks.shtml

The way to go is by setting tmXBMode = "Explicit", and then
explicitly setting the values and labels. For instance:

   res_at_tmXBMode="Explicit"
   res_at_tmXBValues=(/1950,1960,1980,1990,2000/) ; skip 1970
   res_at_tmXBLabels=(/"1950","1960","1980","","2000"/) ; don't label 1990

once you set res_at_tmXBMode = "Explicit", the minor tickmarks are turned
off, so you would need to set tmXBMinorValues if you still want the
minor tickmarks to be drawn:

   res_at_tmXBMinorValues = ispan(1949,2006,1)

Good luck,
Adam
