[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #60759] test subplot fails on hi-res display

[Markus Mützel]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #60759 (project octave):

Afaict, `subplot` only takes the "position" property into account for the
check for overlapping axes. That is only the extent of the axes themselves
(not including the labels and tick labels). See also the blue box in `demo
annotation 2`.
So, axes font and fontsize shouldn't make a difference (and they don't).

Could you please run the following on your hi-res display?

hf = figure ("visible", "off");
set (hf, "position", get (groot, "defaultfigureposition"));  # FIXME: This
step shouldn't be necessary
get (groot, "defaultfigureposition")
get (hf, "position")
unwind_protect
  for ii = 1:9
    hax(ii) = subplot (3,3,ii);
  endfor
  subplot (3,3,1);
  assert (gca (), hax(1));
  get (hax(4), "position")
  subplot (2,1,1);
  get (gca, "position")
  assert (ishghandle (hax), [false(1,6), true(1,3)]);
unwind_protect_cleanup
  delete (hf);
end_unwind_protect


For me:

ans =

   300   200   560   420

ans =

   300   200   560   420

ans =

   0.1300   0.4253   0.1818   0.1844

ans =

   0.1300   0.5996   0.7750   0.3254


Fwiw, in Matlab R2021a:

ans =

        1256        1206         560         420


ans =

        1256        1206         560         420


ans =

    0.1300    0.4096    0.2134    0.2157


ans =

    0.1300    0.5838    0.7750    0.3412


So Matlab seems to choose slightly larger subplot axes.
