[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #46484] datetick does not "keeplimits"

[anonymous]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #46484 (project octave):



The datetick.m included in Octave always calculates tick positions from min
and max of the *data*, while it should do so from min and max of the *axis
limit* when the "keeplimits" option is given.

This means setting a new "xlim" followed by "datetick x keeplimits" will not
provide meaningful tick positions.

This is a bug in Octave, Matlab does it right.

Why this is important:

There are several third party tools which provide zoom- and pan-able date-axes
like "datetickx" or "dynamicDateticks". They will not work with the current
datetick.m, neither any attempt to provide own scalable date axes.

The attached patch fixes it, could somebody please include it in the source?
