Hello,

I tried the code on:

IDL> help,!version,/str
** Structure !VERSION, 5 tags, length=40:
ARCH STRING 'sparc'
OS STRING 'sunos'
OS_FAMILY STRING 'unix'
RELEASE STRING '5.2'
BUILD_DATE STRING 'Oct 30 1998'

First, I tried it as written ... no problem.

IDL> .COMPILE '/disk1/tupper/pemaquid/objtest.pro'
% Compiled module: BGNORM_RANGE.
% Compiled module: OBJTEST.
IDL> objtest
drawing
done

Then I uncommented the specified line. It works without hanging, but the
non-fatal error message that follows
appeared. By stepping through I found that the error message occurs at the
thisWindow->Draw, thisView statement.

IDL> .COMPILE '/disk1/tupper/pemaquid/objtest.pro'
% Compiled module: BGNORM_RANGE.
% Compiled module: OBJTEST.
IDL> objtest
drawing
done
% Program caused arithmetic error: Floating illegal operand

I'm not sure if this helps, but perhaps it narrows down the problem.

Ben
