ncl_wmlgnd - Man Page
plots weather map legends.
Synopsis
CALL WMLGND (X,Y,NTYPE,IROWS,ICOLS)
C-Binding Synopsis
#include <ncarg/gks.h>
void c_wmlgnd(float x, float y, int ntype, int irows, int icols)
Description
- X
(Real, Input) - An X coordinate (specified in world coordinates) of a point that specifies a position for the legend to be plotted.
- Y
(Real, Input) - A Y coordinate (specified in world coordinates) of a point that specifies a position for the legend to be plotted.
- NTYPE
(Integer, Input) - A character variable that indicates the desired kind of legend.
- Legal values for NTYPE are:
1 - Plot the legend for the weather types. There are six weather types: showers; T-storms; rain; flurries; snow; ice. The coordinate (X,Y) for this type specifies the lower left corner of the legend.
2 - Plot the legend for front types. There are three front types labeled: cold; warm; stationary. The (X,Y) coordinate for this legend specifies the lower right corner of the legend.
3 - Plot the explanatory legend. The (X,Y) coordinate for this legend specifies the bottom center of the legend.
- IROWS
(Integer, Input) - An integer variable specifying how many rows there will be in displaying the weather types. IROWS and ICOLS are significant only when NTYPE=1. Choices for IROWS x ICOLS are: 1x6, 2x3, 3x2, and 6x1.
- ICOLS
(Integer, Input) - An integer variable specifying how many columns there will be in displaying the weather types. IROWS and ICOLS are significant only when NTYPE=1. Choices for IROWS x ICOLS are: 1x6, 2x3, 3x2, and 6x1.
Usage
The only internal parameter that controls the appearance of a legend is COL, specifying its color.
Access
To use WMLGND or c_wmlgnd, load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg, ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c, preferably in that order.
