Details:

Hello,

given following example:


figure
plot (1:100)
set (gca, 'ylim', [0 1000]) % just some 'dummy' out-of-range setting
set (gca, 'xlim', [1 10])
disp ('press ENTER to continue')
pause
set (gca, 'ylimmode', 'auto')
set (gca, 'xlim', [1 11])


The expected behavior should be (as in eg. Matlab R2016b) that (in the end)
the y-axis is scaled to a range of 1 to 11. But octave scales from 0 to 100 -
octave uses the complete data range to scale instead of only the data shown in
the current view (limited x-range).

PS. Tested with octave 6.3.0 under linux with graphics_toolkit qt, fltk and
gnuplot.
