How can I have a new line as part of a graphical text string in NCL?
load “$NCARG_ROOT/lib/ncarg/nclscripts/csm/gsn_code.ncl” begin wks = gsn_open_wks(“x11″,”test”) ; Assumes ‘~’ is the function code, and not the default ‘:’ title = “This is a title~C~with a carriage return” txres = True txres@txFontHeightF = 0.03 gsn_text_ndc(wks,title,0.5,0.5,txres) end • How come I get different line thicknesses on different output devices using the same thickness value? Line thicknesses displayed on different output devices (X11, PostScript, PDF, etc.) can be significantly different for the same line thickness value. This is due to several factors. Every device has a default, or nominal, line thickness (also sometimes call line width). This nominal line width is the width of a line drawn with the default thickness value of 1.0. In general this nominal line width is different for different devices. What a given device considers its default line width can vary from barely visible to fat. For example, the nominal line width for PostScript output may look thinner than a
