Marco,

You are entering new territory here. We have not tested plplot with fltk 
/ cairo before. Alan's advice still stands. Try to reduce the problem
down to as simple an example as possible and post it to the list. 
Hopefully this will allow others to reproduce your problem and give
them as good a chance as possible of solving it.

Incidentally, if you are willing to contribute a simple example of how
to use fltk / cairo it might be a useful addition to our examples. The
examples are the main way of demonstrating to users many of the features
of plplot. They also serve as a useful check that things work as expected
when either plplot or external libraries are upgraded. 

Regards

Andrew


Andrew,

No problem, I will try my best to reduce my code to a point where I can share 
it to be replicated by others.

Last week when I finally figured out how to use plplot on fltk through the 
Cairo context I put together a simple example based on one of the available 
demos in plplot. I sent an email to both the developers and general list 
announcing this and mentioned that I was happy to lend my test case to the 
developers for inclusion in the code as you mentioned. I pasted the code in the 
email also in case anyone browsing for plplot and fltk might find it and use 
it, but I never heard back from anyone so I was not sure there was interest on 
picking it up. But if there is I'll be glad to help as I can.
