Has anyone successfully used the textthick command on cgColorbar? If so, perhaps you can help me figure out what I might be doing wrong. Instead of getting an error message, I get a weird hang in code that normally completes in less than a second.
Here is my complete color bar section:
ticks=loglevels([30,4000],/Fine)
nticks = n_elements(ticks)
cgColorbar,Range=[30,4000],Position=[0.15, 0.85, 0.9, 0.93],$
/ylog,/vertical,yticks=nticks-1,ytickv=ticks,charsize=3,/rig ht,textthick=4
If needed, I can also post the rest of the device commands. This is output in ps, and without the textthick command comes out normally, except for very thin lines and font.
Many Thanks,
CHristina

Looks like it works perfectly to me. Here is the code I used to test it
on my Windows machine:
cgPS_Open, 'test.ps'
ticks=loglevels([30,4000],/Fine)
nticks = n_elements(ticks)
cgColorbar,Range=[30,4000],Position=[0.15, 0.85, 0.9, 0.93],$
/ylog,/vertical,yticks=nticks-1,ytickv=ticks,$
charsize=3,/right,textthick=4
cgPS_Close
END
Have you updated your Coyote Library lately?

Thanks for the followup by the way!
I personally know many graduate students who thank you profusely for your hard work.
