5 set/unset multiplot grows x11 windwo - ID: 2812476

Last Update: Comment added ( nobody )

Details:

This has been discussed before, but I've not previously been successful in
creating a simple example.

Running 4.2.5 or the deverlopers sources, the following command produce a
growing x11 window.

set terminal x11
set multiplot; plot sin(x); unset multiplot;
set multiplot; plot sin(x); unset multiplot;
set multiplot; plot sin(x); unset multiplot;
set multiplot; plot sin(x); unset multiplot;
set multiplot; plot sin(x); unset multiplot;
set multiplot; plot sin(x); unset multiplot;
set multiplot; plot sin(x); unset multiplot;
...

For me, repeating the set/plot/unset line 100 times is sufficient. However,
I do not get consistent results on different computers. There seems to be a
timing issue.

In any event, this did not show up for me until after the option for
specifying the size and position of the x11 window was added (for 4.2.4 no
growth occurs).

When the window does grow it appears to be by the amount allocated for the
mouse coordinates.

Date: 2009-07-04 23:57 Sender: sfeam OK. I've commited this fix, since we will need it anyhow if we are ever to support mousing inside multiplot. I still don't see how it would explain your earlier problems with x11 window sizing, but who knows - maybe it will fix that also.
Date: 2009-06-30 20:20 Sender: sfeam The good news is that I now understand why this happens, and simple fix below will avoid the problem. The bad news is that this test case illustrates a flaw in initializing multiplot mode, so I doubt it is the explanation for your earlier problem cases where the x11 window kept growing. But if you can reproduce the earlier problem reports, you can see whether this happens to fix them also. Before adding this change to CVS, II need to think about whether there could be any undesirable side effects for other terminals besides x11. --- gnuplot/src/term.c 2009-06-26 16:57:29.000000000 -0700 +++ gnuplot-cvs/src/term.c 2009-06-30 13:15:19.000000000 -0700 @@ -780,7 +780,9 @@ term_start_multiplot() * disable mouse; call UpdateStatusline() * to eventually turn off statusline / save_mouse_state = mouse_setting.on; +/ EAM DEBUG This causes a window resizing artefact on x11 mouse_setting.on = 0; + EAM DEBUG */ UpdateStatusline(); #endif }
