Re: Adjusting plots in panels after labels are removed

You can also panel plots of different sizes by not using gsn_panel,
and instead
setting the vpXF, vpYF, vpWidthF, and vpHeightF resources for each plot.
The problem with this is then you have to generate your own labelbar.

For example of using vp* resources, see example 20 at: http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/panel.shtml

And then to add your own labelbar, see example 15 at: http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/maponly.shtml#ex15
