Anything in IDL like R's Copy to Clipboard As a Metafile? [message #48213] Thu, 06 April 2006 12:18

I'm new to IDL and I'm looking for functionality that works well in R.

With any R graphic, I can click on "File" and select Copy to Clipboard and
then select "As a Metafile" or "As a Bitmap". Usually the Metafiles work
great when pasted into Word documents.

Did I miss something in the IDL documentation about a quick and easy way to
get IDL graphics into Word (of course, Alt-PrintScreen does work, but it's a
bit crude). The only solution I see now is to create a graphic file and
then import it back into Word, which will be quite tedious compared with
what R provides.

Thanks.
