    IDL 8.2 is now available for download from the Exelis VIS website at http://www.exelisvis.com. This release continues with improvements to the new graphics introduced in IDL 8, which make it easier and quicker to create visualizations. IDL 8.2 also adds other new functionality including checkboxes for the tree widget, Where method for LIST and HASH, support for JSON (JavaScript Object Notation), checks for duplicate routine names, and file IO updates/new support. See details of what’s new in IDL 8.2 at: http://www.exelisvis.com/...L/VersionUpdate.aspx

    Hi, bokubo: I try to evaluate IDL 8.2 in windows 7 eviroment, but the fellowing code doese not running: IDL> mMoll = MAP('Mollweide', $ IDL> name='test_map', $ IDL> TITLE='Mollweide Projection') IDL> IDL> grid = mMoll.MAPGRID IDL> grid.LINESTYLE = "dotted" % Invalid object reference: . % Execution halted at: $MAIN$ When I remove the "name" keyword, it's ok: IDL> mMoll = MAP('Mollweide', $ IDL> TITLE='Mollweide Projection') IDL> IDL> grid = mMoll.MAPGRID IDL> grid.LINESTYLE = "dotted" so what's the problem? thanks! dave

    This is a bug -- the mapgrid object isn't being returned from the map object when NAME is set; e.g.: IDL> m1 = map('Mercator', name='foo') IDL> help, m1.mapgrid OBJREF = The workaround is to set the NAME property after creating the map: IDL> m2 = map('Mercator') IDL> m2.name = 'foo' IDL> help, m2.mapgrid MAPGRID This is CR 66886, for your reference. mp

    Is a new license required for 8.2 (coming from 8.1)? I'm getting the following message: "License server system does not support this version of this feature".

    Yes, you need a new license file. If your license is current on maintenance, you are entitled to the new license file. Our software requires a new license file for releases at the major and point revisions (X.X). Service pack or patch releases (where the revision change is 2 or more decimals to the right) do not require a new license file. Bill
