Taller y-axis

Hello all -

I'm using the autograph routines to plot a simple x/y plot. I need to
make the plot a rectangle, not the typical square, with the taller axis
in along the y-axis. I can make a rectangle with the commands:

       CALL NGSETI('LX', 0)
       CALL NGSETI('LY', 0)
       CALL NGSETI('UX',600)
       CALL NGSETI('UY',792)

However the plot is still "orientated" with the x-axis as the longer side.

How can I rotate the plot so the origin point of the x/y axis is along a
different side of the graph?

To complicate matters I need the y axis to have a log scale with 1100 at
the origin point and the top of the frame go to 20. I've been able to
accomplish this using the set commands and mirror imaging the y-axis
start and end values. As a bit of background I'm plotting an
atmospheric temperature profile and cannot migrate to NCL code as this
graphics runs within a series of Fortran programs.

I'm sure that the answer is simple, but I'm just not keying in on the
correct search terms when trying to search through the examples given!

Thanks for anyone's help on this.

Lena
