[Scilab-users] xpoly()

[Stefan Du Rietz]

Hello,

I have made quite an effort to write commands in numerous sci-files 
with the low level function xpoly() to avoid changes to the axes.

But (surprise, surprise!), suddenly the low level function make those 
changes, and there is no way of avoiding it!

Because set(a,"auto_clear","off") only works for high level functions:

auto_clear:
"If this property value is equal to "on", a call to a high level 
graphic will re-ininitialize the current axes and erase all its 
children before preforming the drawing (log_flags will be reset). If 
the value is "off" the drawings will be added to current axes 
according to "auto_scale" property."

So, the good low level function has become a new type of high level 
function (that does not obey the usual rules) and is not replaced by 
anything!

Is that not a serious bug?

"re-ininitialize" should probably be "re-initialize" ...
