Re: panel plot papersize

Xin,

You need to be more clear about what you mean by "it didn't work".

The one problem I see with your script is that "text" is getting overwritten each time through the loop. This is going to cause only the last text string to show up. Is this the problem you're talking about?

If so, then just like you did for "plts", you need to create an array to hold your text strings:

text = new(10,graphic)

Then, inside your do loop:

>
> do i=0,9
> plts(i) = gsn_csm_contour_map(wks,data(i,:,:), res)
> text(i) =gsn_add_text (wks,plts(i),years(i),41,58,rtxt)
> end do

If this still doesn't work, then please include a sample graphic.

Thanks,

--Mary
