    I’ve been using the CLIPBOARD function from Fanning’s Coyote library, http://www.idlcoyote.com/programs/clipboard.pro , for many years, but it does not work in v8.8 and 8.8.1. Has anyone fixed this already?

    The error is
    % IDLGRCLIPBOARD::DRAW: Unable to acquire device context.
    % Execution halted at: CLIPBOARD 168

    Which is at the line
    theClipboard->Draw, thisView
    (the line number is different from the Coyote library function as I added some options)

    The example in the IDL help, for IDLgrClipboard, works, but this is for a vector graphic and I can’t figure out what is missing for bitmap graphic.

    Thanks.

    What operating system and version are you using? Is this a virtual machine?
