OK, homework can wait, I guess. :-(
I completely gutted the drawing code of Histoplot and gave
up trying to squeeze the round IDL histogram into the
square hole of an IDL plot configuration. I just draw the
darn thing now from first principles. Works a hell of a lot
better. :-)
As far as I can tell, it works exactly they way it used
to work, only correctly. It certainly works with the data
you sent me. I'd be curious to know if anyone else has
a problem, although I would appreciate if you could wait
to report it until after the mid-term next week.
You can find the new version here:

Cheers,
David

Yes, there is some problem with Histoplot that I haven't
been able to get to the bottom of yet. I'm not sure I'll
have time to look at it anytime soon, either. (I'm basically
going crazy with a Statistics course on top of everything
else I'm trying to do, and homework has become a BIG priority.)
I've actually been thinking of re-writing this, when I get
the time, in light of some new statistical thinking I have
been doing. In any case, with certain data I have seen the
kind of problem you describe before.
It would help if I could get ahold of the data set you
are using. With the data I have around here, HistoPlot
always works perfectly. ;-)
Cheers,
David

I use this command to use histoplot
Histoplot,float( parallax),BINSIZE=1.33,/LINE_FILL, $
POLYCOLOR=['charcoal', 'dodger blue', 'navy', 'forrest
green']
