MAP_SET with MAP_GRID, /BOX_AXES can result in lon labels overwriting the title specified in MAP_SET

Some combinations of MAP_SET with MAP_GRID, /BOX_AXES can result in the longitude labels at the top of the plot overwriting the title specified in MAP_SET. This Help Article is a workaround for CR#8162.

Some suggested workarounds to this problem are as follows:


1)
The easiest is to use a "!A" Hershey control character at the title start. That will bump the title up high enough for the labels to fit underneath:

   Window, XSize = 700, YSize = 550
   Map_Set, 0, -80, Limit = [10, -90, 50, -50], $
    /Cylindrical, /Isotropic, XMargin = [5, 5], YMargin = [4, 4], $
    Title = '!A!ACylindrical Isotropic', CharSize = 2.   
   Map_Grid, /Box_Axes, CharSize = 2.

2)
Other options are to use XYOUTS or to change the CHARSIZE.
