Hi, Is there a way to change the default font variables for the plot function? I know that this does the trick: "For IDL's Graphics functions, use the FONT_NAME and FONT_STYLE keywords to select the font." But I'd rather change it once, then using these keywords every time I want to plot something. Thanks in advance, Wouter Schellekens

Hi Wouter, What do you think about this example: p = PLOT(/TEST, FONT_NAME='Helvetica', TITLE=STRING(176B + 5B) + 'm') p.FONT_NAME='Courier' Basically, a functoin property is actually a "method" that can be called using the object handle "p". Then, you can change the property anytime you want in your code. Cheers! fernando

Also, there is more information here about fonts in IDL: http://www.exelisvis.com/docs/Using_T... for example. Cheers, fernando
