Re: [ferret_users] Going back in time ?



In fact, you don't need to redefine the time axis, but only turn off calendar-formatting for plots:

...

yes? use my_paleo_data
yes? cancel mode calendar
yes? plot/hlim=8000:2000 myvar

And you could turn on MODE CALENDAR if you prefer dates in listings.

Olivier,

This applies only to  formatted calendar axes.  For instance, you can do something like this:

yes? define axis/t=2000:8000:100/units=years timeaxis
yes? let myvar = randu(t[gt=timeaxis])
yes? plot/hlim=8000:2000 myvar

For the kinds of time axes that you would use, am I right in thinkin that the time steps are generally large enough that this would be sufficient?

Hi Olivier,

No, axes are always increasing in time.  Unfortunately there is not an option to change that.

This is a real problem to work with paleoclimatologist, which almost always plot the time backward :-((
