cgLoadCT, 5, RGB_TABLE=pal_1
cgLoadCT, 33, RGB_TABLE=pal_2
cgWindow, WMulti=[0,2,1]
cgControl, Execute=0
cgImage, cgDemoData(5), PALETTE=pal_1, /AddCmd
cgImage, cgDemoData(7), PALETTE=pal_2, /AddCmd
cgControl, Execute=1

That's weird. I'll look into that. :-)
It is probably because there is no cgWindow at first, so it has to
create one to "add itself to", then, cgLoadCT actually sends a
command to a window to "load colors". This is probably generating
a second window because it didn't realize it had just created one!
Anyway, it sounds broken. I'll fix it. :-)

I guess I'm not sure what you mean. I tried this:
cgplot, cgdemodata(1), title='Something 6x10^5', /window
And it seemed to work perfectly in PostScript when I created the
PostScript file. Can you provide an example that is failing
for you?
Cheers,
