[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #39433] subplot sizes wrong

[Michael Godfrey]

Follow-up Comment #8, bug #39433 (project octave):

Ben

Looking quickly at subplot.m I notice the following
are initialized right after the function entry:

  align_axes = false;
  replace_axes = false;
  have_position = false;
  initial_args_decoded = false;

Later, only for gnuplot, align_axes is set true.

But also,
"position" can be used to set have_position = true
and then later in the code
"align"   can be used to set align_axes = true, and
"replace" can be used to set replace_axes = true

These settings seem to be dependent on other argument
processing which is not very clear.  So, some care
will be needed in making changes.  Also, "replace"
and "position" are not documented, so their effect needs
to be figured out and documented, along with "align".

So, I still think that initializing align_axes to true
at line 71 of subplot.m is a good idea in any case.

Then, all this can be figured out, compared with Matlab,
and documented.

Do you want to do the one line patch?
