Re: [ferret_users] problems in generating post scrip file plot

["Yogesh K. Tiwari" <ktiwari@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Helo Ansley,

Thanks for reply.

I tried the shakey option as you suggested 
(ppl shakey 1,0,-0.1,2,,,5,9,5.5,6) but the 
key is not appearing on the plot. I played 
with the shakey numbers and  I could get the 
key  on the plot.

ppl shakey 1,0,-0.14, 4, 4, 8

Now, how to inlarge this key so it should 
look comfortable for 9 view plots in a window.

I tried many option with many numbers in 
shakey command but could not get success.

Also I want the key in horizontal in bottom, 
not in vertical.

One more problem I am facing.

How to decrease the spacing of each row. 
There are total three rows and there is much 
space between each row.

Many thanks,

Regards,
Yogesh
