Hi Kwan,

Sorry for the slow reply.  I was out of the office yesterday...

The only thing that I can think of right off is that your session is not
configured with enough frames to handle the default settings of the MCGUI.
If you have not already done so, try running the '-config' option of
the McIDAS startup script:

mcidas -config

and make sure that there are about 20 frames.

Please let me know if this was or was not the cause of the problem that
you are experiencing.

Cheers,

Tom
