I have two pltcl: /usr/local/plplot_build_dir/utils/pltcl and /usr/local/plplot/bin/pltcl, both the same size at 22,004 bytes. MBPro:~ jb$ cd /usr/local/plplot_build_dir/examples/tcl MBPro:tcl jb$ export PATH=/usr/local/plplot/lib:$PATH MBPro:tcl jb$ /usr/local/plplot/bin/pltcl pltcl> source x01 PLplot library version: 5.9.9 Plotting Options: < 1> xwin X-Window (Xlib) < 2> tk Tcl/TK Window < 3> ps PostScript File (monochrome) < 4> psc PostScript File (color) < 5> xfig Fig file < 6> null Null device < 7> tkwin New tk driver < 8> mem User-supplied memory device < 9> svg Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG 1.1) <10> bmpqt Qt Windows bitmap driver <11> jpgqt Qt jpg driver <12> pngqt Qt png driver <13> ppmqt Qt ppm driver <14> tiffqt Qt tiff driver <15> svgqt Qt SVG driver <16> qtwidget Qt Widget <17> epsqt Qt EPS driver <18> pdfqt Qt PDF driver <19> extqt External Qt driver <20> memqt Memory Qt driver <21> xcairo Cairo X Windows Driver <22> pdfcairo Cairo PDF Driver <23> pscairo Cairo PS Driver <24> svgcairo Cairo SVG Driver <25> pngcairo Cairo PNG Driver <26> memcairo Cairo Memory Driver <27> extcairo Cairo External Context Driver Enter device number or keyword: 16 <<<< Right after I hit Enter here, what I believe might be the Qtwidget window appears as an empty black window (with a title bar) for about 1/10 second before it disappears.>>>> QColor::setRgb: RGB parameters out of range *** PLPLOT ERROR, IMMEDIATE EXIT *** plP_setphy: device minima must not exceed maxima Program aborted MBPro:tcl jb$ If I select 4 (psc), a PS file is created of size 21,483 bytes but my PDF viewer refuses to open it, reporting a non-specific PostScript error. If I run x01c and output to PS, the file is 47,429 and opens OK (except that it is rotated 90 degrees but that's another issue). Doing a file comparison of the PS files, the Tcl file's first three lines look like this: %!PS-Adobe-2.0 EPSF-2.0 %%BoundingBox: -429496697 -429496697 5090 -4484 %%% whereas the first three lines of the C-generated PS look like this: %!PS-Adobe-2.0 EPSF-2.0 %%BoundingBox: 44 44 580 738 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% The Tcl file contains 344 nan's of which 64 are lines like this: /Helvetica nan SF and 62 * 4 nan's are in lines like this: /Helvetica [nan nan nan nan 0 0] SF That file does end in %%EOF which I think is a valid eof marker for PS. The C-generated PS contains zero nan's. I've attached the Tcl PS file but I don't know if the list server will allow it, so I'll cc you and Alan. When I select <2> or <7> from the device list after starting x01, the results are the same as when running x01c which I have reported earlier. Jerry
