[scilab-Users] Using plot function

[Jan M. Hollis]

Hi,

On my  computer (HP dm3-3012nr with Intel HD Graphics) I am able to get into the 8-bit graphics mode by performing the following:

Go Right-click on an empty spot on the desktop>Screen Resolution>Advanced Settings>List All Modes>Scroll up.  You  see some 256 color modes. Select one. Click Ok. Click Apply.

This allows the Scilab plot function to execute without crashing the program;
however, I do not see any resultant  plot on the Scilab graphics window.

Any thoughts on this?

Cheers,
Jan M. Hollis

I think it is the case (once more).

Could you try the workaround described here ?
