idlusers-news-gateway:

I am using idl on a SUN SPARCstation 2 with 8bit color graphics.
I am running idl V3.1.1 under X using the server X11.0, X11/NeWS.

My questions:

a) How can I get the current number of free colors (to be used in a shared
color map) before activating the first window?

b) Why DEVICE/GET_WINDOW_POSITION does not return the coordinates which are
directly usable with WINDOW,XPOS=...,YPOS=... to position the new window
on the same place?

Many thanks to all who can help.

Sincerely,
Gianmario Galli
