Re: [Plplot-general] plplot-wxwidgets-plotting

[David B. <stu...@gm...>]

Alan,

Thanks for the quick response.  You are correct, this was a rather 
convoluted piecemeal hack of several examples from both wxwidgets and 
plplot.

Attached is a simplified version.  There is one, and only on, plot 
function, and a very simple widgets GUI with no buttons or menus.
The issue is present, i.e. no tick mark values and no labels.  I did not 
add any external frames, rather than show a difference I opted to show 
one thing in this example.

The only real difference is that I am using a wxPanel to make the plot 
in the splitter window.

I am fairly new to both PLplot and wxWidgets so I may be using these 
functions incorrectly (it is not my intent to unnecessarily spin people 
up for help but I have tried and am clearly missing something).  Viable 
hypotheses are (1) I'm instantiating the Panel incorrectly, (2) invoking 
the plot incorrectly, (3) that plots and panels don't work like plots 
and frames do (and I'm missing some data), (4) there is a size issue and 
the text I expect to see is outside the limits of the Panel.

As I stated before, in a more complex code base this issue goes away if 
I "re-plot" the same plot in the same window via an external button 
push.  Would it help if the plot function was "owned" by the myApp?
