[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #31468] multi-line text objects

[Ben Abbott]

Follow-up Comment #13, bug #31468 (project octave):

Phi/others,

Matlab provides two ways to implement text objects. The documented approach is
...


h = text (0.5, 0.5, {'first line', 'second line'});


In addition, this (undocumented approach) also works


h = text (0.5, 0.5, ['first line', char(10), 'second line']);


I'd like to see both of these approaches work in Octave.

Since title(), xlabel(), and ylabel() each produce text objects, patching the
sources to allow text objects to be multiline should resolve all these
problems.

This will require that all backends are able to handle strings that are
character arrays, and cell-strings.
