Details:

I save a .ofig file with hgsave, then re-load it with hgload (or just from the
file menu of any open figure), and then the zooming causes the titles and
labels to zoom. Here is an example:


close all;
clear all;

x=0:.1:20;
y=sin(x);
h1=figure(1);plot(x,y);
title('y=sin(x)');
xlabel('x');
ylabel('y');

saveFileName='testSave1.ofig';
hgsave(h1,saveFileName);

hgload(saveFileName);



Now there are two open figures. Select figure(1) and zoom in, and the title
and labels stay put, as they should. But select figure(2) and zoom in, and the
title and figures zoom out of view.

It seems as if the saved file does not properly contain the figure properly. I
suppose the failure could be coming in on the hgload as well, if loading from
a figure file menu calls hgload as well.

The report #51049 might be related, but I couldn't tell.

I first noticed this with release 5.1, where I think I might have been using
gnuplot. I uninstalled that and installed 6.1.0, and now I am using the
default qt, and it still happens.

p.s. You are all truly heroes, and I appreciate your efforts immensely.
