For future reference, the newsgroup comp.lang.idl is for the Interface
Definition Language. This is a question for the comp.lang.idl-pvwave

Uh, switch back to PV-Wave, where you COULD do this
if no windows were currently open. But it ain't gonna
happen in *any* version of IDL. :-)

P.S. Let's just say RSI believes in commitment.
And I believe it in too. Especially since I have the
only book out that shows you how to write programs that
