[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #59589] default color in bar (and hist) plots is different from Matlab

[Rik]

Update of bug #59589 (project octave):

                 Release:                   6.1.0 => dev

Follow-up Comment #1:

In Matlab 2017b, they switched from using colors from the "colormap" property
of the axes or figure to using colors from the "colororder" property.  That is
the root incompatibility.

For example, this reproduces the same result as Matlab


h = bar (1:5);
set (h, 'facecolor', get (gca, 'colororder')(1,:))
get (h, 'facecolor')
ans =

        0   0.4470   0.7410


I don't think there would be any objection if you wanted to modify __bar__.m
to use "colororder".
