New graphics from IDLde and the command line [message #85417]

When I open a new graphics window on my Mac (IDL V8.2.3, Mac 10.7.5) the appearance is quite different depending on whether I am working in the command line or the IDLde. For example, from the command line if I type

t = plot(indgen(10))

there are 6 pictograms (e.g. "print", "save", "properties"...) on the bottom, whereas there are 10 pictograms when working in the IDLde. (These 10 pictograms do *not* include a "properties" button but rather the properties ("text", "fill") are given their own pictogram.) The dropdown menus are located to the right of the pictograms in the IDLde , whereas in the command line they are part of the pictogram. These difference are not entirely cosmetic -- there are some things I can do from the command line that I haven't figured out how to do from the IDLde and vice-versa.

It is possible that I have startup settings for the IDLde that are different than for my command line but if so I have no idea what these might be that could affect the new graphics display.

Thanks, --Wayne
