Hi,
I have been playing around with David Fanning's example programs to
see if I can snatch a few ideas for my next project. BTW, Xwindow is a
fantastic program.
One thing that I need is a plot of an image with axis and a colorbar that
easily can be printed to high quality PostScript.
Easy, I thougth. Use xwindow, tvimage and colorbar as in the following
example:
;------------- Start hurrah.pro -------------------
PRO hurrah, image, Xxx=xxx, Yyy=yyy
erase
pos = [0.05, 0.1, 0.8, 0.9]
tvimage, image, position=pos
!p.position = pos
plot, xxx, yyy, /xsty, /ysty, /nodata, /noerase
colorbar, position=[0.85, 0.1, 0.95, 0.9], /VERT, /RIGHT
END ;------------ hurrah.pro ----------------------
image = hanning(64) # hanning(64)
xwindow, 'hurrah', image*200, Xxx=[0,1], Yyy=[0,1], /Out
END ;-------------- main.pro ----------------------
This works except one detail:
How do I get readable fonts (i.e. PostScript and NOT Hershey fonts) on the PS output?
I know this post should be sent directly to David Fanning but he answers all the questions on
this newsgroup anyhow :-)
Any suggestions.
