Hi Arjen:

The x and y window limits for the 7th subpage (lower left) of each page of
example 25 are -20 to +20.  i.e.,

xextreme[6][0] = -20.0; xextreme[6][1] = 20.0; yextreme[6][0] = -20.0;
yextreme[6][1] = 20.0;

For that case and for the diamond and reverse diamond cases (page 1 and 2)
you are sampling the middle of a polygon which has a much larger range than
the window limits. Thus, for this case the window limits samples the filled
center of the diamond (and reverse diamond) and shouldn't you expect red
completely filling the window as a result?

If you agree with that supposition, then there must be a plfill bug in the
PLplot core since the 7th subpage is empty (rather than a block of red). See
http://plplot.sourceforge.net/examples.php?demo=25 that was produced by
pngcairo for an example of this bad result, but I get this same bad result
regardless of what device driver I try.

Note, I noticed this bug because I have adapted example 25 (see next post)
to run a second set of four pages where plgradient (implemented with a
software fallback using plshades) replaces plfill.  For that case, the 7th
subpage is filled with plshades results which is why I began to wonder why
plfill left it empty.
