[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #43907] OpenGL render code called even when gnuplot is graphics_toolkit

[Michael Godfrey]

Follow-up Comment #7, bug #43907 (project octave):

Right, since graphics_toolkit('qt') does not error in your
example there does not appear to be a bug of the kind
that you reported. 
Whether there are other side effects of toolkit switching
while figures are open is still to be determined.

Until this is worked out, it would be safer to not allow
it. If a user wants to do comparisons it is pretty easy
to print the current figures  and then switch toolkits.
Cautious users would do this anyhow in order to make the
experiment reproducible.
