The first time I ran the script I wrote, it worked fine, but now the only way I can see the oplot is if I press control+c while it is running. I'm not sure what to do or how to fix it because I'm not getting any error messages. Any advice is appreciated.

For performance IDL batches up some graphics commands in a buffer. This does sometimes lead to situations where what appears on the screen is incomplete.

What I usually do is put a WAIT, 0.01 command at the end of my list of graphics commands. WAIT causes the graphics buffer to be flushed. I guess the more correct way to do it is with the EMPTY command.
