[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #48401] Gnuplot produces only ":" gridlines

[Dan Sebald]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #48401 (project octave):

Give the attached patch a try.  gnuplot doesn't have dashtype for "set grid",
but I managed to make it work by using a "linetype" definition.  (I'll send a
note to gnuplot about that oversight.)  After your test example, try something
like:

set(gca, 'gridlinestyle', ':', 'gridcolor', [0.1 0.5 0.1])

Also in the patch I add an extra conditional to get rid of some redundant
lines of gnuplot code that set the characteristics for a non-existent point
style.  There is actually more of this sort of redundant code if one sets
points without lines.  The whole do_linestyle_command() could be reworked.  I
began down that path but found the "found_style" and so many conditions to be
confusing.
