Hi

(I'm using IDL 7.1.1 and updated OS X 10.7 (Lion) over the weekend.)

I'm experiencing problems (I think) with X11 at the moment.

A) ImageMagick has gone. I may have installed it manually, but went
for re-installing MacPort (http://www.macports.org/) that is still
spitting series of errors both in X11 and Terminal.app, like,

reno$ convert
dyld: Library not loaded: /System/Library/Frameworks/OpenCL.framework/
Versions/A/Libraries/libclparser.dylib
Referenced from: /opt/local/bin/convert
Reason: image not found
Trace/BPT trap: 5
reno$

B) While I did not notice any problem with "direct" graphics, I am
having trouble with David's graphic tools. It's kind of strange
problem - showing error messages below, while graphics seems to work.

IDL> cgPlot, IndGen(10)
% X windows protocol error: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes).
% X windows protocol error: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes).
% X windows protocol error: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes).
% X windows protocol error: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes).
% X windows protocol error: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes).
IDL>

With more complicated graphics, such as cgContour, with multiple plots
in a window, the responses are more puzzling - plot titles, labels,
plots, etc are randomly disappearing every time I tried.

I am told that Lion's is based on xorg-server-1.10.2, although XQuartz
2.6.3 will be based on xorg-server-1.10.3. I'm still searching for
solutions. I have not contacted ITTVIS, but wonder if they're willing
to support IDL 7.1.1 (not sure if version 8 is flawless).

Ta.
