Dear All,

I have the following problem with the graphic axes property clip_state.
I don't know if comes from an inaccurate description in the
documentation or something I'm not understanding quite well...

1) I create new axes by plotting some data set. As expected, axes' size
matches the plot data range.

2) I run

gca().clip_state = "off"

Acording to the documentation
(https://help.scilab.org/docs/6.0.2/en_US/axes_properties.html), from
now on all newly created objects should not clip, meaning that even if
the object (such as a polyline) exceeds the original data range, it will
be displayed in full.

3) I plot another data set that exceeds the original axes limits.
Contrary to the expected behavior, it does clip.

4) I run

gca().clip_state

and I see it has reverted to "clipgrf". This explains the observed
clipping, but it is not clear why the setting from 2) has changed.

5) I run again

gca().clip_state = "off"

Nothing happens (it makes sense, since the clip_state should affect new
objects, not previous ones)

6) I run

gce().children.clip_state = "off"

Only now the clipping is gone and the second plot shows in full.

Why the original clip_state setting is overridden?

If it is the normal or expected behavior (in which case the
documentation isn't accurate), then what is it meant for, given that the
final impact is that of each individual entity's setting?

Thanks in advance.

Federico Miyara
