Well, I think what you put in the window is the lower-left
pixel of your image. Don't worry, in my experience about
85% of the people who start using object graphics in IDL
do this. I certainly did. :-)
You are going to have to decide what kind of coordinate
system you are going to use in your view object. It
might make a LOT more sense to use a coordinate system
more in line with your image dimensions that with the
default coordinate system that will show a single pixel.
Check your viewplance rectangle. And you might have a look
at ximage.pro in the Coyote directory for an alternate way
to get to the same place:

Thanks for your reply. I'm wondering if there is some other problem
since when I try to run the CenteringAnImage.pro code provided in IDL
help. I still can't see anything in the window. I don't know what is
going on.
