Dear Ansley,

Thank you very much for your reply. I changed the script, the way you have suggested. Now It is working fine.

Thanks,

Sudev

Hi -
You need to tell Ferret to evaluate the variable MONTH at each time step. It's looking to the command parser just like any string.  What you would need in the label is something that would do this,

`Month[l=`currTime`]`

But we can't have grave accents inside grave accents.  So make an intermediate variable, and evaluate that in the LABEL command.

repeat/range=1:`nos`/name=lg (;\
set view v`lg`; contour/line/fill/lev=($t_levels)/k=1/L=`currTime`/nokey/nolab temp; go fland;\

let mlab = Month[L=`currTime`];
label/nouser `($ppl$xlen)/2`, `($ppl$ylen)-0.2`,0,0,0.16,`mlab`;\

Dear All,

I have a script meant for generating multiple sub-plots in a single window using the "repeat" command. In that script, I face problem in writing labels inside each subplot.
I would like to write the month name inside each subplot starting from March (i.e. "(a) MAR, (b) APR,.......(l) FEB.)

Please see my script below.

======================================================================================
I am defining the label number and month name in the following way:

LET lab= TSEQUENCE({"a","b","c","d","e","f","g","h","i","j","k","l"})
LET Month =TSEQUENCE({"JAN", "FEB", "MAR", "APR", "MAY", "JUN", "JUL", "AUG", "SEP", "OCT", "NOV", "DEC"})

Here I am defining a variable "StrtTim" so that I can start the subplot with any desired month.
LET StrtTim=3 !

Here I am assigning the value of "StrtTim" to another variable "currTime", with which the loop is running. The
value of the variable "currTime" is changed using an IF condition statement at the end of the loop after plotting
each subplot.

LET nos=12
LET currTime=StrtTim
repeat/range=1:`nos`/name=lg (;\
set view v`lg`; contour/line/fill/lev=($t_levels)/k=1/L=`currTime`/nokey/nolab temp; go fland;\
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
label/nouser `($ppl$xlen)/2`, `($ppl$ylen)-0.2`,0,0,0.16,Month[l=`currTime`];\
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
=======================================================================================
When I run this script, in each subplot instead of getting the month name as MAR, APR, etc. I am getting the labels as: "Month l=3", "Month l=4",etc..

Please give me some suggestions on what mistake I am making in my scripting. I also like to know how can I concatenate the label and month name

so that in the subplot the label will be (a) MAR, (b) APR etc..

Hope to get a reply soon.

Thanks,
Sudev
