[Gnuplot-info] Fitting a long string into the key

[Lukas S. <sh...@ya...>]

Hi, 
I'm plotting some data with quite a long key. My problem is, that
gnuplot displays first 63 characters of the key and cuts the rest of. I
know, I know, 63 chars should be far enough for a legend, but in this
case it's not. :) 
Keys are loaded from the first line of a data file, using
'autotitle columnheader'. I tried to enlarge the key by adding some
width increments, but it just enlarged the key box and left the string
unchanged. 
Here's the command I've used: 
>> set key width 20 autotitle columnheader 

Any ideas how to deal with it? 
Thanks

your problem has been solved with the introduction of gnuplot-4.4.0
you should upgrade to the actual gnuplot version.
