I was glad to hear you have had "NMake Makefiles" success.  That's the
beauty of CMake.  You are allowed to pick whatever backend generator
that fits your needs.  On my Wine platform I have recently built and
tested PLplot with the "MinGW Makefiles", "MSYS Makefiles", "Ninja",
and "NMake Makefiles JOM" generators.  The first two gave complete
success for all languages.  "Ninja" currently cannot handle anything
other than C or C++ (but it is fine for those) and I have only tested
C and C++ so far for "NMake Makefiles JOM".

executed example 25 as you requested, and yes, the same issue as I've
shown in the screenshots I've sent before occurred.

I have recently compiled wxwidgets on the Wine platform and ran a few
examples sucessfully (but not example 25).  I will try to build that
again in the next week or so to see whether there are misalignment
issues for example 25 or not for that platform.  And I hope the others
here that have access to Windows and wxwidgets give example 25 a try
to help see whether this misalignment issue is general one for
wxwidgets on Windows.

> So, I basically copied the examples code into wxWidgets without
modifications, so if my code is incorrect, the code online should be
incorrect... Maybe it is the online code that is incorrect, because
the website hasn't been updated for quite some time. Also the website
states an svn checkout location which only offers revisions until
March 2013, thus missing all revisions by using the svn checkout
location listed at the sourceforge page.

You should be using the repository code listed at the sourceforge
project page rather than the website code although I doubt they are
much different. (What happened was as part of the March "Allura"
upgrade, SourceForge froze our old repo and copied the information in
it to a new repo at a different location with updated binary format.
Our next release should update the code references at our website from
the old repo to the new repo to eliminate this source of confusion.)

Thanks for the additional information you gave about your
wxwidgets/PLplot project, and if you happen to implement fixes for
some of the issues of the wxwidgets device driver, we would be happy
to accept your patches.
