Thanks Rick, that helps tremendously and will certainly help down the roa=

timewarning:NhlGetValues:Error retrieving tmYLLabelsWhile I'm not explicitl=
y setting this resource myself, the plot does contains labels. Is there a=
nother resource that is responsible for creating these labels besides tmYLL=
abels?When I've used getvalues for contouring, I've been able to access t=
he specific contour resources that I was not explicitly defining in my reso=

Hi Jon,

If you look at the resources for tickmarks at:

    http://ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Graphics/Resources/tm.shtml


at the top it says "TickMark (tm) Resources". The word "TickMark" is a lin=
k taking you to:

    http://ncl.ucar.edu/Document/HLUs/Classes/TickMark.shtml


which lists all the tickmark resources (for example, and similarly for ot=
her resource types). In each row, there are a set of letter codes, suc=
h as "RCSG". These codes stand for:

R - ?

C - create
S - set
G - get

so the one's with G are ones you should be able to query with getvalues.

Hope that helps...

Rick

Hi NCL group,
I am hoping to use the getvalues statement to reference a maps tickmark res=

I have used getvalues for contour resources before but can not find an exam=
ple or documentation on which resources can be accessed with this statement=
. =

Ideally, I'd like to gather the tmYL resources used to create the nice lo=
ngitude labels/tickmark locations on a map which would then be given to an =
X-Y plot with the same Y dimensions, but no lat/lon attributes. =

If there is a place besides the quick NCL statement guide that describes wh=
at can be accessed by the getvalues statement, feel free to direct me the=
re.
Thanks in advance. =
