[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #39692] text objects ignore backgroundcolor, linestyle, edgecolor

[Pantxo Diribarne]

Follow-up Comment #23, bug #39692 (project octave):

I had this test ran in ML:


clf
peaks ();
for p = -3:3
  text (p, p, p, 'toto', 'backgroundcolor', 'r', 'margin', 20);
end
drawnow ()
c = getframe (gcf);
imwrite (c.cdata, 'peaks_and_text.png');


and the resulting png is attached. As I said on the mailing list, this
probably means that ML draws this axes in 3 stages, between which the depth
buffer is cleared so that subsequent objects are drawn on top of previous
ones, regardless of their actual position in space. See
http://octave.1599824.n4.nabble.com/Request-for-a-test-in-Matlab-td4685352.html

My conclusion is that the latest version of the patch produces less visual
artifacts than Matlab implementation so I'd like to go on with that strategy.
