Well, I would say don't use FSC_Color. For two reasons.
First, it's very old and has been replaced by cgColor.
Second, it's not really doing you any good. The
Function graphics commands are pretty good when it comes
to dealing with color. You should use the methods
they provide for specifying colors. If you want to
use cgColor, set the Triple and Row keywords when you specify
the color:
p = plot(x, y, color=cgcolor('olive', /Triple, /Row))
But, as I say, it is MUCH easier to just do this:
p = plot(x, y, color='olive')
If you grow tired of waiting for Function Graphics commands (it's
possible!), you can do the same thing with Coyote Graphics
commands, if you update your Coyote Library:
cgPlot, x, y, color='olive', /Window
Cheers,
David
