colormap problams on my SGI
type: item
description: Hello IDL folks! I have just started using IDL on my SGI Indigo2 with Irix 6.2 and Solid IMPACT graphics. Whenever I have an image displayed on the screen, it is always shown in black and white, until I move the mouse over to that window. But then it changes the colormap for the entire screen, not just my little IDL graphics window. So, for example, if I have loaded a rainbow colormap, my entire desktop changes to a funky-wildy color scheme as long as the mouse is inside the IDL image window. Has anyone come across this problem with their SGIs? And if so, how did you solve it? Thanks, Pierre ____________________________________________________________ ___________ Pierre V.
