[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #49143] inputdlg does not handle well vectors

[Nicholas Jankowski]

Follow-up Comment #11, bug #49143 (project octave):

examples:

Matlab 2022a:

2 element row vector, 3 prompts

orientation = inputdlg({'axis x' ,'axis y','axis z'},'cosine directors',[1
70],{'0','-sind(180)','cosd(180)'})

produces dialog with 3 inputs, each 1 row high and 70 chars wide
Octave throws an error because the vector is supposed to have the same number
of elements, each defining a height.

2 element row vector, 2 prompts

orientation = inputdlg({'axis y','axis z'},'cosine directors',[1
70],{'-sind(180)','cosd(180)'})

produces dialog with 2 inputs, each 1 row high and 70 chars wide
Octave produces a dialog with 2 inputs, the first 1 row high the second 70
rows high, as per the documented behavior.
