Re: fields in legend

Hi Fan,

Please see the new example 12 at:

http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/legend.shtml#ex12

I think you should be able to use the legend that is generated automatically with your XY plot, and then set lgBoxMinorExtentF to a small number, like 0.1 or 0.2.

If you need to create your own legend, then you can still try setting this resource to decrease the legend line widths.

Basically I want to reduce the lengths of the lines and leave more space for the text strings explaining the line types. We found that the fonts of the text is reduced to illegible when the string is too long under lgAutoManage - do I have to set it to "False"?
