draw box

[Kristoffer Walker]

Folks,

I've not found a solution using Google.  I'm trying to make a polar 
histogram using rose, but replace the outer box with a circle.  The 
first step is to remove the box.

set(gca,'box','off')
refresh

does not affect the visibility of the axis box.  I cannot manually edit 
a gnuplot file easily to make this change because this is inside a 
function that creates other subplots in the same figure window where I 
want the box functionality to be working.  Any suggestions?

octave:168> version
ans = 3.6.4

Linux Mint v. 13 (based on Ubuntu 12, I think).

Thank you,
Kris
