Common Blocks
Notes
Notes: The plot window is the area defined by the axes.
Normalized window coordinates are defined here to be
linear from (0,0) at the lower left corner of the plot
window, and (1,1) at the upper right.
Useful for plot window related items such as legends.
Normalized coordinates are really normalized device
coordinates. Normalized window coordinates are missing
from IDL's list of coordinate systems.
