Examples

The following code snippet shows how to use the NhlGetWorkspaceObjectId function to increase the maximum workspace memory:

  wks = gsn_open_wks("x11","example")

  setvalues NhlGetWorkspaceObjectId()
    "wsMaximumSize" : 300000000
  end setvalues

This is useful if you find yourself getting an error message from NCL that looks like this:

fatal:ContourPlotPreDraw: Workspace reallocation would exceed maximum size 100000000
fatal:ContourPlotDraw: draw error
warning:WorkstationDeactivate: workstation not active or not opened
