I have found a solution, instead of make_preview_pdf(name)

        def run
                t.figure_names.each do |name|
                puts "\nMake #{name}.pdf"
                t.make_preview_pdf(name)
                end
        end

make_preview_pdf(number) should be used:

        def run
                0.upto(t.num_figures-1) do |i|
                        t.make_preview_pdf(i)
                end
        end

It seems that make_preview_pdf(name) is working like make_preview_pdf(0)
and gives no warnings. I guess samples/ subdirectory of tioga
(figures/sample_batch.rb, plots/run.rb, sine.rb) should be updated
according to this bahaviour. Tutorial should be updated too [1].
