Hi Christian,

Do you have a file called color.def in your CSS workspace?  If not, there should be a default copy included with CSS.  I've never done a brand new install of CSS, so I don't know how that works.

Dyou have recent copies of the sscan-module .opi files?  The translation software has improved since I first started using it.  What versions of the sscan module and CSS are you using?

The most recent sscan-module .opi files are here:

Thanks for advice
I got it working now, i guess i simply had a typo in the PV names.
I can run the scans now, and i can also save Data with saveData.

Now i am trying to set up the GUI using CSS. I found several example
opi-files in the sscanApp/op/opi Directory in the sscan package.
I managed to set the macro-variable $(P) in CSS, such that the PV-names
refer to my correct scan, however something is wrong with the display:
When i run the OPI, I just get a plain grey area, and all the letters
are grey on grey. I digged around in CSS for ages to find where i can
change color settings, but without success.

If i write an own opi, everything is fine, but all the example opi-files
have this annoying dark gray background.

Is there a simple trick to get these examples working ?
