[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #58526] "view(az, el)" does not work

[Daniel Molina García]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #58526 (project octave):

> Unable to reproduce.

I attach two figures of what I obtain with qt and with gnuplot.

> Try values for azimuth and elevation other than 90 degrees. 

They don't work either.

> Also try drawnow.

Running _drawnow_ after view doesn't correct the plot.

> And do try a 3D plot (plot3) before calling view.

With _plot3_ it works as expected, no bug in that case.

> 2D plots are not meant to be rotated that way.

I found that a solution to exchange x and y axes useful. I find it better than
using _view_ than using _camroll_ in complex subplots where I want all
subplots rotated. I find it more convenient than using something like
_plot(y,x)_ plus a reverse when there are different datasets in each subplot.

> view() works for me.  Try a 3-D plot example such as [..]

That example works for me too. It seems only a problem in 2D plot.

> Is there some reason the OP can't (or doesn't want to) use OpenGL plotting
with the Qt toolkit?

Yes. In my main distribution only gnuplot is working. I commented it in
Comment 2 of #58419 <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?58419#comment2>.
Before reporting bugs I check them in a virtual machine with Debian
(screenshots come from there, so qt looks right).
