Re: Remove "Pressure level" label

Mateus,

The "set_pres_hgt_axes" is an internal routine used by
gsn_csm_pres_hgt, so yes, commenting this line should have worked.
Are you loading your modified copy of this file, and not the
installed version?

Also, you can try setting:

    res@tiYAxisString = "whatever"

in your own script to change this value. The "height" label doesn't
have the same ability to be changed unfortunately, so the method
Dennis suggested below should work.
