This discussion bears on an unfortunate liability of traditional API's --
their quick obsolescence when new features / capabilities are brought online.
Back when I was into generating a lot more types of plots than I do now, I
even built my own front-end to plplot to control many aspects of the plo

Would it be considered reasonable to some form
Hi Steve:
You have made a lot of good points that have pretty much convinced me we
should add some functionality to our axis scaling to make it more convenient
for those of our users (including especially QSAS users with all their data
scaling needs) who don't want to programme axis scaling themse
