[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #34906] Compatibility difference with ticklabels, linestyleorder

[Stefan Mahr]

Follow-up Comment #11, bug #34906 (project octave):

Rik, 

There's a reason why I did not use getline. It breaks this code:

set (gca (), "xticklabel", "a|");
xticklabel = get (gca (), "xticklabel");
assert (xticklabel, ["a";" "] );

This problem doesn't appear with gnuplot, only with fltk.

AFAIK, this would break matlab compatibility when doing
 get (gca (), "xticklabel");
 
IMHO, the font renderer has to trim the strings. Also, there's another problem
with fltk frontend:


plot(1:4);
set (gca (), "xticklabel", "a");


The xticklabel only appears at the first position and is not repeated.
