[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #51049] hgsave is not working

[Mike Miller]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #51049 (project octave):

Kai - I think it's the difference between wanting to save the figure
properties to be reloaded, which is what hgsave and hgload do, versus saving
the image of the figure to be used in a document or presentation. The .fig
extension is what Matlab uses for a .mat file that contains figure properties,
I think, not the same as the XFig graphics format.

Marc - yes, hgsave and hgload probably have some issues and areas that could
be improved.

The specific error message referred to here means that the save() function is
being called on an object, which Octave does not yet support. Do you have an
object saved somewhere in your figure properties, maybe as a custom property
or a callback or something? Can you give an example of one of the more complex
figures that causes this error?

Otherwise we can probably close this as a duplicate of bug #45833.
