[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #52266] axis lines not shown in plot window

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #10, bug #52266 (project octave):

I don't think it would be bad to set LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 permanently.  You
would be choosing software over hardware rendering on a permanent basis.  The
advantage is that the software-rendering engine is implementing the OpenGL
specification more accurately than the hardware-rendering engine.  The
disadvantage would be performance.  For most Octave plots, that shouldn't be a
big deal, but if you have an application, maybe gaming or possibly CAD, that
needs to draw a lot of polygons then it might be a problem.  Of course, you
could always arrange to either set LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE only before running
Octave.  Or you could go the other way and unset the environment variable
before running your graphics-intensive software.
