[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #51444] surf(): additional white lines in surface plot

[Rik]

Update of bug #51444 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Confirmed

Follow-up Comment #3:

The white lines are simply the axes color showing through.  You can check that
by setting the axes background color to something vivid.  Assuming the sample
code from comment #2 has been executed, try


set (gca, 'color', 'b')


This might be an Octave problem, but it's not an obvious one.  The lines
appear to be where OpenGL has broken surfaces into triangles when tessellating
the surface.  In particular, a square gets broken in to two triangles which
"overlap" along the diagonal of the square.  I think someone who is a real
OpenGL expert needs to review libinter/corefcn/gl-render.cc.
