The trick is to leave some room on the right side of
the window for the colorbar. You can do this with the
POSITION keyword to the Map_Set command.
Then, just draw a colorbar. Since we seem to be talking
about objects today, here is an example program that uses a
colorbar object. You can download it at:

LoadCT, 5
Map_Set, /Ortho, /Grid, /Continent, $
Position = [0.1, 0.1, 0.7, 0.9], $
/Isotropic, /Label
cbar = Obj_New('Colorbar', $
Position = [0.85, !Y.Window[0], 0.90, !Y.Window[1]], $
Vertical = 1, $
Range = [0, 40], $
Title = 'Temperature')
cbar->Draw
END

Save the program as "example.pro". Then, run the program
as a main-level program, like this:
IDL> .Run example
Now, here is where you see the power of objects.
Don't want the color bar? Try this:
IDL> cbar->Erase
Want to see it again?
IDL> cbar->Draw
Ya gotta like that!
When you are done with the object, you get rid of it
like this:
IDL> Obj_Destroy, cbar
Have fun!
Cheers,
David
