Dear all,
I am using plplot 5.13.0 and wxwidgets 3.1.0 in a windows environment, VS
2017.
I've attempted to merge the plplot wxwidgets example with more complex
wxwidgets examples to generate plots in various frames and panels in a larger
GUI format.
The specific example that produced the figures in this email were made using
wxWidgets uiaction sample (UI action simulator) and the WxPLplotDemo code.
In a nut shell I've made a splitter window in the main GUI and placed a copy
of one of the plots there via a call to Plot() in the mainframe definition.
The same plot is called for some menu action too.
The issue I am seeing is that the plot in the main GUI does not have axis
labels or tick mark values but the separate plot, activated by the menu does.
Also, if I refresh the plot in the gui via a separate menu action the missing
data returns.
All calls are to the same function. I'm asking here first since it's the
plot generated by PLplot that is inconsistency but it may be a wxwidgets
issue.
(it is clear that I was messing with other PLplot attributes too, like
subplot, color, etc. This was not the cause of the difference as it is
present regardless.) Modified code is attached (note that the "run
simulation" menu item will cause a crash.), it is a quick hack job but I'm
not seeing an obvious cause for the diff.
This is the main frame GUI
This is the separate plot generated in a new frame.
Hi David:
I suggest you make a self-contained example that demonstrates the
issue in the simplest way possible. Such simplified test examples are
really worthwhile since they normally help you to find the bug in your
own code or if there is no such bug make it much easier to debug
external library code such as that from PLplot or wxwidgets. Also if
it turns out the bug is not in your own code such a simplified example
should be easy for PLplot developers to build with CMake and run on
various platforms to see whether the issue shows up on all platforms.
For example, I would be willing to help with such a test on the Linux
platform.
Good luck with implementing this suggested simplified example, and let
us know how it goes.
Alan
