Thanks for the suggestions and workarounds! Sorry if I sounded
combative btw, I'm a big fan of Octave — you have already done so much
with it, I would just hate to see the community limit itself to
replicating Matlab's features and nothing more since there's a lot of
potential here...
However, it is very likely that the Matlab approach will provide you
with the flexibility you need, just in a different way. If you can
explain what you're looking for we may be able to help.
Well, for what it's worth, this is the item I'm trying to replicate:
set term aqua "Deflection vs Phase" size 216 144 font "Times,7"
In particular, the size and font specification. This is important so
it integrates into my documents.
The rest of my configuration I think I can probably figure out how to
control matlab-style within Octave, or at least isn't critical to get
exactly the same:
set border lw .25 lt 0
set xtics textcolor rgb "black"
set ytics textcolor rgb "black"
unset xzeroaxis
set xlabel "Phase" offset 0,.5
set ylabel "Deflection (radians)" offset 1.25,0
set key inside left top
Thanks,
