[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #46076] Documentation needed for ui* family of GUI building functions

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #6, bug #46076 (project octave):

@John: To make a hyperclick link that points off to another portion of the
manual you can use @ref, @xref, or @pxref.  The @xref variants automatically
add "See " to the front of the reference and are used most often in Octave.

For an example, look at plot.txi.


The documentation about a specific graphics object can be displayed
using @code{doc} function, e.g., @code{doc ("axes properties")} will show
@ref{Axes Properties}.


which in the pdf is translated to 


The documentation about a specific graphics object can be displayed using doc
function, e.g., doc ("axes properties") will show Section 15.3.3.3 [Axes
Properties], page 371.


The reference needs to point to an @node entry.  For the Axes Properties
example, the reference points to


@node Axes Properties
@subsubsection Axes Properties
@cindex axes properties
