[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #30461] legend should work for lines with different parents

[Ben Abbott]

Follow-up Comment #9, bug #30461 (project octave):

Regarding placing the key outside the plot box, there may be other solutions,
but the one I know of was implemented in, now reverted, activepositionproperty
changeset.

    http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/9c0b366583cb

If we add that change back, then when "outerposition" is active it will
always refer to the bbox of the axes and its labels. While that is not
consistent with Matlab, I find it conceptually attractive from user
perspective.

If that sounds like a reasonable compromise I can try putting a new patch
together. The functions axis.m, and colorbar.m will need to treat the gnuplot
backend in a special manner, but the changes are fairly trivial.
