Re: [ferret_users] Problem with vector plot



I am facing one more problem

vector/len=60/nolab u,v  ==> from this vector size is reducing as I expected
but in vector scale its shows 60 cm/sec, here I want to show vector corresponding to 30 cm/sec

How can I do this ?

I am using following command to plot vector but in scale I want to show vector corresponding to 30 cm/sec

vector/color=blue/nolab/len=60 u_tcur,v_tcur
ppl veckey/nouser 0,-0.5,,(f4.1,'' cm/sec'')
ppl vector
 

Thank you Ansley and William S. Kessle for last reply

Hi,
Take a look at the TAX functions.  These let you convert time coordinates to various formats including a date string,

yes? show functions tax*

TAX_DATESTRING is the one you want; you can tell the function how much of the string to list.  See the documentation for the details about calling this function.  I have one more hint.  In the example from the documentation, you could add the /NOROW qualifier to the LIST command, to remove the coordinates at the start of each row; and perhaps /NOHEADER. So here's an alternate example,
yes? define axis/t=1-jan-1980:1-jan-1990:4/unit=days tax
yes? let date_list = t[gt=tax,t=9-jun-1980:26-jun-1980]
yes? list/noheader/norowheader tax_datestring(date_list,t[gt=tax], "day")

"09-JUN-1980"
"13-JUN-1980"
"17-JUN-1980"
"21-JUN-1980"
"25-JUN-1980"

Thanks a lot Sir,  any solution for saving only date from list /l=1:10 t[gt=time] command to some variable  ?

Your second PPL VECTOR command (final command to actually draw the plot) needs to have the qualifier /OVER
And the /OVER qualifier on VECKEY is wrong (does that not give an error?)
Where you say you get "many labels", that is because you omitted /NOLAB.
