Rick,
I am only using ION Script, not ION Java. Do you have a solution?

Haje,
Are you using ION or ION Script?

Nothing about idlgrclipboard mentioned in ION manual. Therefor I conlcude
that this is a bug. I will write up the example and submit it as a bug

David,
ok, I separated the code from my ION application and found that the
clipboard object works with and without the vector keyword in IDL. However,
in ION a plot is ionly created, when the vector keyword is set! I have to
check the ION manual whether this is a bug or a feature. I have the feeling
that it is a bug....

David,
this is strange: if I omit the /vector keyword, no file is created at all!
Something is fishy here, and the water I am swimming in is still murky...

I think I would try removing the VECTOR keyword. Vector output is
a bit of a hack, thrown in to appease some of use who were displeased
about the size of PostScript output. Until there is a true vector
pipeline from object graphics to PostScript the chance of this working
with any but the simplest object graphics programs is probably slim.
This should work OK without the keyword. Just be sure you have plenty
of disk space. :-)
Cheers,
David

I thought I might... But I don't.
