Hi Pearse,

Thanks for the release of VAPOR version 3.9. According to our previous discussion [How to get a sub-domain of WRF model output - #12 by Jerf](https://vapor.discourse.group/t/how-to-get-a-sub-domain-of-wrf-model-output/127/12), I can easily get a sub-domain from a large WRF simulation. My problem is that the tick marks are too long due to zoom-in (shown as follows). I did not find any tab to adjust the length of the tick mark.  
Thanks a lot for your help.

Jerf

Hi Jerf, check out the Scene/Annotation tab and you’ll see a size field for each axis like the one highlighted below:
