Yes, tell me about it. But not just for the NG. I was
looking for information on Label_Date last night and
I couldn't even find *that* in the IDL 8 documentation!

I've decided to write my own set of "Coyote's Guide to ..."
books so I can at least find the things I'm looking for!
I hope to have the first one ready in a month or so.

In the meantime, I *had* written an article about this,
but had got my web page so screwed up moving repositories
around that I didn't know it. :-(

I think I've sorted it out now. But Matt Haffner sent me
some additional information about changing the data in
a graphics object, so I have updated the page with that.
Basically, if you want to change the data in a 2D or
3D plot, you have to pass a 2xN or 3xN array as the
argument to PutData.

You can find the article here.

Cheers,

P.S. I've had several people send me a heads-up recently
about articles or programs I've written. I just want to
say again how much I appreciate that. I try hard to
get things right, but the only way to really make it happen
is to have many eyeballs looking over my shoulder. :-)
