Hi Wolfgang,

There are a number of ways that extra white space could be showing up
in your plot. Ozan mentioned one possible way of reducing it.

One common case where whitespace shows up is if the plots you are
panelling are not exactly the same size. If this is the case, you are
probably going to get whitespace no matter what you do. You will then
need to panel the plots yourself. See example 20 at:

   http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/panel.shtml#ex20

Another cause for extra whitespace is if you have a main title that is
longer than the width of your plot. (By the way, to turn off Y axis
titles, set res_at_tiYAxisOn = False.)

As Dennis mentioned offline, if you can send me and/or him a sample
image (PS, PNG, GIF), this will help us determine the problem.
