Re: [ferret_users] Shifting major tics?
Hi Mick,
Thanks for your help! (And, Billy, thanks for yours, too.)
| The "trick" used is to limit the x-axis to exclude the unwanted end
| points. If you just wanted to exclude labels at the end points (but
| wanted the defaults to apply inside) you could use:
| shade/nolab/hlim=10.001:69.999 v
This trick (also pointed out by Billy in his private email)
has solved my problem.
In my previous email, I simplified my situation. In fact,
my axis spans from 20E to 60W (x = 300) and is *cyclic*
define axis/modulo=280/x=20.25:299.75:0.5/units=degrees_longitude \
xax_mod
As if this isn't odd enough, I need to plot the eastern
portion of 70W--60W (x = 290--300) to the *west* of 20E.
(I'm plotting America half-superimposed on Africa!)
So, I plot
contour/hlimits=10:290:30 . . . !! instead of 20:300
This works because my x-axis is modulo 280. The problem is
that I want to have numeric labels at 20E, 50E, 80E, 110E, etc.
By default, the labels are plotted at 10E, 40E, 70E, etc.
So, the trick is
contour/set . . . ; ppl xaxis, 10.01, 290, 30; . . .
which does what I need.
I'm not sure if this trick works in more general cases, though.
Regards,
Ryo
