[Gnuplot-info] cbaxis in given format and margin

[cédric o. <ced...@gm...>]

Hello,

It seems that the computed margins in gnuplot 4.2 (or in gnuplot 4.4 if I add
"Helvetica" 30 to the terminal options) do not allow the cbaxis to be
completely legible.

Note that I have prescribed a given (scientific) format to this axis.
Without this scientific format, the values on the cbaxis fit on the
final eps figure.

Is there a work-around that would keep the font size used in the
cbaxis as well as the aspect of the plot.

I have tried to set the margins but I did not manage. Is there any
important ordering of the commands?

Thank you by advance for any hint,

Cédric

Following is a typical script:

reset
set term postscript eps color
set output 'tmp.eps'

unset surf; set view map;
set palette defined ( 0 'blue', 250 'cyan', 500 'green',750 'orange',
1000 'red')
set palette rgbformulae 22,13,-31
set pm3d

set xlabel 'x'
set ylabel 'y'

set format cb "%-1.1e"  # <= scientific format
set cbtics 50

splot x*y
