[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #53832] Fractional independent variable mis-plotting in Qt, not Gnuplot.

[Rik]

Update of bug #53832 (project octave):

                  Status:                    None => Duplicate

Follow-up Comment #1:

Alas, this is just another manifestation of the fact that OpenGL uses single
precision variables for plotting while gnuplot, and Octave, use doubles.  See
bug #32980 from 2011.

The solution is to scale the data before plotting.  In this case, the
timestamp has a large constant value of 736177 and then a small changing value
of order 1.  I just subtracted off the first timestamp value which then
reveals that the range of data is [0, 2.17].  I have attached that as
bg2.dat.

If you modify plotbug.m to load bg2.dat you will see that the plot is
correct.

Marking as a duplicate and closing report.
