Re: How to panel plots that use wmvect

I'm afraid it's not possible to do this. wmvect doesn't allow you to
attach vectors to a plot, so if you try to do any paneling, the
vectors will be gone.

You can try creating your own vectors using gsn_add_polyline
(tedious), or, if you can get your vector data on a 2D grid (maybe
triple2grid), then you could use gsn_vector to create the vector plot.

We do have it on our list to create a way to draw individual vectors,
but it's been a low priority for now.
