[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #39874] subplot() clears the plot

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #15, bug #39874 (project octave):

Thanks Ben.  From Matlab's documentation, 'align' is the default option and
only option that can be set.  In other words, there isn't actually a choice. 
it looks like it is equivalent to what Octave is doing by default.  Octave
also has a different mode, activated by 'align', which aligns the 'position'
properties rather than 'outerposition'.  Should we get rid of this?

This script, shows the different results of using align, or not, in Octave.


close all
subplot (1,2,1)
subplot (1,2,2)
hy = ylabel ({'line1', 'line2', 'line3', 'line4'});
set (hy, 'fontsize', 30)
print -dpng subplot_no_align.png

clf
subplot (1,2,1, 'align')
subplot (1,2,2, 'align')
hy = ylabel ({'line1', 'line2', 'line3', 'line4'});
set (hy, 'fontsize', 30)
print -dpng subplot_align.png


I uploaded the two png files so you can see the difference.  Because of a bug
with multi-line labels in FLTK I had to take screenshots rather than send the
results of the print command.
