[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #39692] text objects ignore backgroundcolor, linestyle, edgecolor

[Pantxo Diribarne]

Follow-up Comment #7, bug #39692 (project octave):

@Markus: thanks for testing. Indeed I saw the flickering but though it was not
an issue sine the text always seamed to end up on top of the area when I
stopped moving the view. 
Since then I tested again and there are some cases where the text ends up
covered by the background (at least in printout). Pushing the offset to 8 is
currently not enough since the axes background is at 2.5 (see failing example
below). 

I attached an updated version (cleaned up) of the patch with offset set to 8.
With this patch the example below will still fail:


clf
## The following works as expected because pure 2D axes are  
## rendered sequentially
text (.5, .5, "toto", "backgroundcolor", "r")
xlim ([0 3])
ylim ([0 3])
## Now add a 3D object in the 2D scene. 
surface ();
## The objects are now rendered sorted by depth and the text 
## background is hidden by the axes background
 

@Rik: I think you are the one who originally set those offset numbers right.
Do you think we can safely push the axes background to e.g. 9?
