Hi:
When i try to plot something with the function plot(x,y) an error message appears:

-->plot(x,y)
 !--error 999
plot2d: Wrong value for frameflag option.
at line      44 of function _update_leaf called by : 
at line     332 of function _mainPlot called by : 
at line      28 of function plot called by : 
plot(x,y)

How can i fix this?

Hello,

This is a problem due to a regression in plot2d Scilab fonction. The new version 0.46-3 of
the plotlib solves this 
problem. The package has not been built in the Atoms portal but you can already download
the source package and 
build it yourself.

Hello,
I have installed the plotlib toolbox on Scilab 6.0.1. 
By starting Scilab the following error message appears:

> Start plotlib toolbox 0.46
> Load macros
> atomsLoad: Beim Laden von 'plotlib-0.46' ist ein Fehler aufgetreten:
	lib: Old binary lib detected. Please recompile it for Scilab 6.
> at line   118 of function main_menubar_cb ( C:\Program Files\scilab-6.0.1
\modules\gui\macros\main_menubar_cb.sci line 129 )

Is a plotlib Version available, which is compatible with Scilab 6?
Can I do something, in order to fix this?


Thank you in Advance for your help.

Hello,

I have to admit that I didn't have time to finish porting the plotlib to Scilab 6 (I was
devoted to more 
general stuff for Scilab itself: bugs, release 6.0.2, and so on). But stay tuned, I am
still working on it.

Hello,

there occurs a warning, when compiling (3. Execute builder.sce to generate .bin files) the

trunk-version (rev78) of this toolbox for Scilab 6.0.2:
line 27 of builder.sce: tbx_build_loader(TOOLBOX_NAME, toolbox_dir);
should be replaced with: tbx_build_loader(toolbox_dir);

After changing this line, the compilation runs without error.

When starting Scilab 6.0.2 after this compilation, an error comes up:
===================================================================
Start plotlib toolbox 0.46
Load macros
Load help

at line    32 of function uimenu      ( 
C:\Users\stefans\AppData\Roaming\Scilab\SCILAB~1.2\atoms\x64\plotlib\0.46\macros\uimenu.sc

===================================================================
Dont understand this, sinc3e the 'type'-property is used several times in the same script 
(uimenu.sci).

Didnt use this toolbox excessively to say, if its a good one or has even more bugs. But 
for now, sounds good.
