Re: Resizing object graphics on X

[mole6e23(at)hotmail.com (Todd Clements)]

I was able to reproduce the not resizing correctly behavior under IDL 5.3
on Alpha Unix. HOWEVER, I just installed IDL 5.4 about 15 minutes ago, and
ran the code again, and it works correctly now. I guess an update is
needed in order to get this to work on X???
