[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #46739] glLineStipple

[Ben Abbott]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #46739 (project octave):

With gnuplot v5 it is now possible to specify the "dashtype"

http://www.bersch.net/gnuplot-doc/set-show.html#set-dashtype

The dot/dash lengths are normalized to the line width. A length of "2" is
equal to the line width. The short example below approximates the behavior of
Matlab.


# equivalent to ML '-'
set dashtype 1 solid
# equivalent to ML ':'
set dashtype 2 (2,6)
# equivalent to ML '-.'
set dashtype 3 (16,8,2,8)
# equivalent to ML '--'
set dashtype 4 (16,16)


Perhaps, it would be useful to extend the "linestyle" property to support such
an (dash1, gap1, dash2, gap2, ...) syntax and to modify the OpenGL toolkits to
support the syntax present in gnuplot v5.

I'm attaching a gnuplot demo script.
