How do I change the font of the title in a plot?
IDL noob here. Is there any command in IDL which changes exclusively the title of a plot? All commands that I know change all the characters in the plot (including the x-axis and the y-axis labels).

All commands that I know change all the characters in the plot (including the x-axis and the y-axis labels). You could probably do some limited things with embedded format codes: IDL> cgplot, cgdemodata(1), XTitle='This is the X Title', $ YTitle='This is the Y Title', Title='!17This is the Real Title!X' In PostScript, you could have Helvetica on the axes and the title in Time Bold Italic like this: PS_Start cgplot, cgdemodata(1), XTitle='This is the X Title', Font=0, $ YTitle='This is the Y Title', Title='!8This is the Real Title!X' PS_End, /PNG You can see the result here: http://www.idlcoyote.com/misc/fancy_title.png Cheers, David -- David Fanning, Ph.D. Fanning Software Consulting, Inc.
