[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #37554] PaperPositionMode = 'auto' is ignored for printing

[Pantxo Diribarne]

Follow-up Comment #27, bug #37554 (project octave):

Here is a summary of what I implemented:
* the paperpositionmode (default = "manual"), that was unused, now works as
all other *mode properties: when paperposition is set by the user,
paperpositionmode becomes manual
* when paperpositionmode is set "auto", the paperposition property is updated
so that the figure is centered on the page and its size should be
approximately the same as on screen.
* when paperunits, papertype and position are changed, paperposition is
updated.

Printing a figure that has the same size and aspect ratio as on screen should
now be as simple as 


hf = figure ();
plot(1:10);
set (hf, "paperpositionmode", "auto")
print toto.pdf


Does it work for you? 
I could check (see the %!test) that my implementation works also for landscape
orientation but print.m doesn't handle it well. This should probably be
discussed in bug #40259
