Hi,
for some reason ,the ticknames are not displayed under the bottom
plot. When i force it by typing !x.tickname=indgen(4), it does not
locate the names under the ticks but offsted of half a bin to the
right. Is there a way to control the position of the ticknames?
thanks

If you are using MULTIPLOT, then it has a /SQUARE keyword which can be
set on the first call. --Wayne

In my experience, to get best results it is better to bite the bullet
and just use the position parameter to plot manually. That ensures
that
the plots are positioned just the way you need them.
For instance I would do something like:
xrange=[2,7]
x=findgen(10)
y1=x^2
y2=sqrt(x)
plot,x,y1,xrange=xrange,position=[0.1,0.1,0.9,0.5]
plot,x,y2,xrange=xrange,position=[0.1,0.5,0.9,0.9],/
noerase,xtickn=replicate(' ',30)
Of course you may want to fine tune the y tick labels so they do not
collide.
Ciao,
Paolo

Ok, thanks a lot. I use IDL 7.
It works but bothers me now, is the size. Each plot is a bit elongated
in the horizontal direction and i'd like to make it more "squared'. By
the way, how to make the whole plot bigger ?

What version of IDL do you use? In IDL 7, use MULTIPLOT from the NASA
IDL library. In 8, use the layout and /current keywords to your
plots, and set margin=0 on all of them.
