[Gnuplot-info] Problems with errorbar and border

[Patrik.Br. <pat...@gm...>]

Hello everyone

I want to plot a data set with errorbars and showing only the left and lower
border. I've set the yrange so that some of the errorbars will extend
outside the range. However, removing the top border reveals that the
errorbars that go outside the graph get a tic at the upper limit of the
y-range, making the errorbars look shorter than they really are. Can I fix
this or is it a bug?

Here's an example:

Code:

reset
set terminal epslatex standalone color size 12cm, 4cm font "cmr,8" 
set output 'mwe2.tex'

# Set ranges and tics
set yrange [0 : 22]
set xrange [0 : 11]
set xtics 1 nomirror
set ytics 4 nomirror

# Show only left and lower borders
set border 3

# Plot
plot  'data.dat' using 1:3:4 with errorb ls 1 notitle


...and here's a sample data file:
1.0000    1.0000    1.7062    9.9417
2.0000    3.0000    3.7585    8.2323
3.0000    5.0000    5.4395    2.5743
4.0000    7.0000    7.3054    0.0440
5.0000    9.0000    9.7473    2.0102
6.0000   11.0000   11.6045    2.4656
7.0000   13.0000   13.1175    7.4214
8.0000   15.0000   15.3401    0.5689
9.0000   17.0000   18.8288   11.9895
10.0000   19.0000   19.9611    14.3540
