Using color tables in function graphics [message #94783]

I would like to plot multiple lines on the same set of axes and I would like each line to be a different color where the colors follow a specific IDL color table (e.g., rainbow and white = 39). In direct graphics, I could use

loadct, 39

then specify the colors using indices from 0 to 255. I can't find any way to do this in function graphics. Most functions only allow colors to be specified by names. The only exception I can find is using the rgb_table property with "plot," but this just applies the colors to the individual points in a line. Does anyone know a way to do this?

Thanks,

Laura
