Dear all,

Just started to use idl8.0.1 and got problems Re plot.

The code is very simple:

Pro tst
w = WINDOW(WINDOW_TITLE="My Window", DIMENSIONS=[500,100])
t = TEXT(50, 220, "$\it Draw arrow here$", /DEVICE)
arrow, 50, 100,200, 100
End

Two problems:
1) why the graphic window is not 500 x 100? It seems the window dimension has to be greater than 475 x 323? I am using windows machine with resolution of 1280 x 1024.
2) the arrow appeared on a new window, not the current one.

Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

Lao Li
