Re: Subplot problems

[Konstantinos Poulios]

Hi all,
it was Ben's following commit:
http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/350cad34b0f8

that removed the special handling of the "subplot" value of "autopos_tag".

if you look inside the condition

 if (autopos_tag_is ("subplot"))

you can find the relevant code that does the alignment of subplots.

Best regards

Kostas

Konstantinos,

Thanks for the pointer, reading and understanding the patch will
undoubtedly help much. BTW I don't think your patch has been reverted
(or not completely) as "autopos_tag" property is still present in octave
3.8.2. Do you have a reference for this revert or is this a guess from
the current buggy behavior?

The substantial changes to subplot since the change Konstantions posted were these:

http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/623cce4577b3
http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/93edd282a2bc
http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/9304514b566c

Is one of these obviously the one that caused the trouble?

Since these were intentional changes, I assume that they fixed some other problem, so simply undoing one or more of then is not likely the right thing to do, but maybe they will also give some clues.
