Here's a picture I have: http://i.imgur.com/9tmJ2.png. It's of a
contour with the color on the side vertically. The problem I'm having
is that the numbers are not showing up on the colorbar and they cut
off when I pull up the postscript file to excel. Here are the relevant
calls that I'm making in IDL.
SET_PLOT, 'PS'
Device, BITS_PER_PIXEL=8, COLOR=1, /ENCAPSULATED, FILENAME =
results_folder + 'weighted_temp1' + time + '.eps', xsize = 4, ysize =
4.5712, /INCHES
contour, data, x, y, max_value = max_bright, min_value = min_bright, $
/Fill, C_Colors = indgen(levels), background = 1, xstyle = 4, $
ystyle = 4, levels = userLevels, /normal, color = black, $
Position = [0.02, 0.1, 0.82, 0.80]
colorBar, NColors=levels, divisions=6, Range = [min_data, max_data], $
format='(I5)', Position = [0.88, 0.10, 0.95, 0.90], Color = black,
$
/vertical, /right
So my question is what can I do to make the numbers on the colorbar
appear?
I tried changing xsize and ysize and I saw more of the numbers but it
didn't help much. It made the image bigger than I wanted it. Also
don't worry about the black stuff in the contour image. I did that on
purpose. Thanks!

I'd guess, off hand, because those were the colors
you had loaded in the color table. :-)
Cheers,
David

Hi David, I just wanted to let you know that I took out the old
library files and replaced it
with the new ones and it worked so it was a problem on my end. I was
playing around with it
and the only thing was that the color bar came out half in the color
from the table and the
top half was gray. Just wondering if you know why off the top of your
head. If not it's fine
because I probably made a mistake on my part but didn't dig further
because I didn't need anymore.
Just for future reference.
Thanks!
