Hello everyone,
I think there is a bug in the way IDL creates an independent object
graphics window. Once you change things in it, the viewport (or
something else) changes, messing the displayed axes up. Try the code at
the bottom of this message. I use PPC IDL 5.2 and tried it in PPC IDL 5.3.
IDL> test, All_objects=All_objects, window=window, scene=scene, $
IDL> x_axis=x_axis, x_top=x_axis_top
IDL> mod_axis, window=window, x_axis=x_axis, scene=scene, x_top=x_axis_top
Use obj_destroy, objects toclean up after you saw the results.
After mod_axis is executed, the all axes lengthen and reach the edges of
the window. However, if you try using the widget_draw in object graphics
mode, it does not happen:
IDL> test, All_objects=All_objects, window=window, scene=scene, $
IDL> x_axis=x_axis, x_top=x_axis_top, /wid
IDL> mod_axis, window=window, x_axis=x_axis, scene=scene, x_top=x_axis_top
Everything looks normal, scaling changes; of course, the labels are
messed up because size recalculation is left out in the sample code.
Use obj_destroy, objects toclean up after you saw the results.
Does anyone know if this is a feature or a bug? It took me half-day
yesterday to figure out why my axes act up, until I tried to put my
development object window into a widget.
Cheers,
Pavel
