[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #57143] print ('-tight', 'q.eps') produces no file

[anonymous]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #57143 (project octave):

[comment #1 comment #1:]
> * What graphics toolkit are you using?
graphics_toolkit is qt on both OS, although I don't know how to change it, and
of what use it'll be, haven't read that part of the documentation.

> * You marked this bug as affecting any OS. Did you try on several different
OSs?
On Void Linux and Win10 there is no output file. Although, and I should've
mentioned this earlier, it does process something, just that it doesn't result
in an output file.

> In any event, you can tweak the figure to change the margins using the
hidden axes property "looseinset", e.g.:
> set (gca, "looseinset", [0.02 0.02 0.02 0.02])

The documentation for 5.1.0 doesn't have anything about `looseinset`, only a

tightinset (read-only): four-element vector
    Size of the [left bottom right top] margins around the axes that enclose
labels and title annotations.


However, the example given works handsomely with the 1:10; fiddling around
with the numbers: 
[0, 0, 0, 0] tightened the vertical margins, while [1, 1, 1, 1] fully excised
them, also lessening the horizontal one, thought they're still big- together
around a 1/3--1/2 of the actual figure width, actual plot area being a (almost
always) square in size.
