Hi Mary,
Thanks for your reply. Attached with two plot one both using same codes but only mpMinLatF and mpMaxLatF are different. As you could see that the labels are in different height.
Cheers,
Arnold

Dear all,
1st problem:
Try to generate 2 by 2 panel plot:
plot = new(4, graphic)
...............
res_at_mpMinLonF<x-msg://1527/res_at_mpMinLonF> = 0. ; select a subregion
res@mpMaxLonF<mailto:res@mpMaxLonF> = 360.
res@mpMinLatF<mailto:res@mpMinLatF> = -70.
res@mpMaxLatF<mailto:res@mpMaxLatF> = 70.
................
res@gsnLeftString<mailto:res@gsnLeftString> = "a) DJF,"
res@gsnLeftString<mailto:res@gsnLeftString> = "b) DJF,"
res@gsnLeftString<mailto:res@gsnLeftString> = "c) DJF,"
res@gsnLeftString<mailto:res@gsnLeftString> = "d) DJF,"
................
gsn_panel(wks,plot,(/2,2/),res_P) ; now draw as right panel.
If I use such code the plot looks ok. However, if I change MinLatF and MaxLatF to -60 and 60, a) and c) string possition will be higher then b) and d).
Hi Arnold,
I'm afraid I don't have enough information to go on here. Can you provide an image that shows the two different versions?
The only thing that I can think of is that when you change the limits of your plot, this changes the size of your plot, and
in turn, the titles may have to be shrunk in order to stay with the plot.
Also, if your four plots do not have the exact same plot limits, this can cause differences in your titles. If I can
see the images, then I might know better how to fix it.
2nd problem:
Similar plot but 3 by 4 panel plot:

If I change "a) DJF cor. b/t 21st TPC & 20th IOD tele" to "a) DJF cor. b/t 21st TPC & 20th IOD tele." then won't plot that panel and get error message:
I think here you might be running into a problem with the length of your title relative to the size of your
plot. In this case, seeing an image will help, but I may need to follow up after that by asking for your data
and full script.
Thanks,
