[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #47974] Visual differences between gnuplot and OpenGL toolkits

[Dan Sebald]

Follow-up Comment #31, bug #47974 (project octave):

I suppose when one thinks of x-label, y-label, title it's a relative sort of
thing, having to do with automatic placement.  That's gnuplot's perspective,
but I suppose it would be nice to have an "at <pos>" feature in gnuplot for
"xlabel".

But in some sense, it isn't necessary because if one is going to do manual
placement of x-lable, y-lable and title--in this case Octave--the generic
"label" can be used for all of those.  Then just leave the xlabel, ylable,
zlabel, title empty.  See "help set label" in gnuplot.  In Octave:


>> h = title("This is my title")
h = -55.967
>> get(h, 'type')
ans = text
>> get(h, 'position')
ans =

   5.50000   1.05829   0.50000

>> get(h, 'units')
ans = data


I'm not sure why the "position" is a triple as opposed to a coordinate pair.
