Package: gnuplot-qt
Version: 4.6.3-1
Severity: normal
The "zoom" documentation says:
Zooming is usually accomplished by holding down the left mouse button and
dragging the mouse to delineate a zoom region. Some platforms may require
using a different mouse button. The original plot can be restored by typing
the 'u' hotkey in the plot window. The hotkeys 'p' and 'n' step back and
forth through a history of zoom operations.
The option `zoomcoordinates` determines if the coordinates of the zoom box are
drawn at the edges while zooming. This is on by default.
If the option `zoomjump` is on, the mouse pointer will be automatically
offset a small distance after starting a zoom region with button 3. This can
be useful to avoid a tiny (or even empty) zoom region. `zoomjump` is off by
default.
Under Debian, in a 'wxt' terminal (which is the default one), zooming
is actually initiated with the right mouse button. Anyway. Once done,
the zoomed window doesn't contain anything. For instance, run:
$ GNUTERM=wxt gnuplot -persist <<EOF
plot '-' using 1:2 t '' with line
0 0
10 10
e
EOF
One gets a straight line from (0,0) to (10,10). Then delimit a zoom area
from around (2,8) to (8,2), by clicking with the right button over (2,8)
and clicking with any button overs (8,2). The obtained result is blank
instead of containing a part of the line.

Actually the problem with the 'qt' terminal is due to the -persist;
this is discussed in bug 711139.
With the 'wxt' terminal, this is also due to the -persist, but this
was supposed to work. I get either blank contents or a crash (in
interactive use, after "quit") with error "stack smashing detected".
So, let's update the bug title again and close the bug since the
'wxt' terminal is no longer supported.
