Uh, I don't *think* that is what you have. Are you sure you don't
open the window *before* you draw graphics? And why is the window
you do open a different size from your animation window?

I would do this:

window, /FREE, /PIXMAP,XSIZE=400, YSIZE=500
myGraphicsWindow = !D. Window
XInteranimate, Set=[400, 500, 1100]
FOR j=0,1099 DO BEGIN

WSet, myGraphicsWindow
.
.my graphics procedure that draw into the window goes here!!!
.
.
.
XYOuts,100,100,/Normal,'hour'+StrTrim(j,2),Color=yellow


XINTERANIMATE, FRAME = j, Window=myGraphicsWindow

Endfor

XINTERANIMATE,0

Cheers,

David

Thanks, but I think I am missing something. At first I am using a
window but then I transform the window into an image. So, how can I
make XYOuts work regarding this? Is it still useful?
Best regards,
IC

If you are loading the pixmaps from a display window (ie, using
the WINDOW keyword) then a simple XYOUTS will work. If you are
loading the animation directly from an image (ie, using the
IMAGE keyword), then load the images into a display window,
and use XYOUTS, as above.

Cheers,

David
