[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #54436] get (gca, 'yticklabel') returns cellstr row vector versus cellstr column vector in Matlab

[Rik]

Update of bug #54436 (project octave):

                  Status:               Need Info => Confirmed              
        Operating System:                  Mac OS => Any                    
                 Summary: yticklabel difference with Matlab => get (gca,
'yticklabel') returns cellstr row vector versus cellstr column vector in
Matlab

Follow-up Comment #6:

So, it would seem that the general rule is that numeric vectors are *always*
row vectors, while cell array of strings are always column vectors.  Octave is
consistent in producing row vectors for both data types.  Changing this
doesn't look straightforward, so it is probably easier to change code to make
it independent of the particular orientation.  An easy workaround is to use
'(:)' to force a column vector orientation.  In other words,


labels = get (gca, 'yticklabel');
->
labels = get (gca, 'yticklabel')(:);
OR
labels = get (gca, 'yticklabel');
labels = labels(:);
