problems zooming into plot region

[Mojca M. <moj...@gm...>]

Hello,

I'm curious whether I'm the only one experiencing this problem or if
this appears to be "a feature" rather than a bug in the eyes of
developers.

If I use
   plot [0:] 'datafile.dat' ...
then I'm unable to zoom into the desired region of a plot with a mouse
by selecting the desired rectangle. It zooms properly to the y axis
and (usually) to the right of x axis, but the left of x axis always
stays at zero which is a bit annoying.

Also, the mouse movement (moving wheel to left & right) which usually
moves the graph to left & right is now zooming in & out instead of
moving the graph.

Thank you,
    Mojca
