<p>Dear Claus,</p>
<p>I've not experienced any issue on Scilab 6 so far with this routine.</p>
<p>If this error shows up even if the code is not executed then the error may come from elsewhere? I've had some issues with Scilab 6 error messages pointing out the wrong chunk of code. </p>
<p>The "invalid buffer" message may indicate that there is a problem during the first run. I would start by investigating this part.</p>
<p>Best regards,</p>
<p>Pierre</p>

<p>Hi there</p>
<p>I've started to use the prettify functions by Pierre Vuillemin. So far so good in Scilab 5.5</p>
<p>Now I've started to look into Scilab 6 (not least because graphics is much faster), but I get a weird error.</p>
<p>If I start Scilab, first time I execute the code, I get an "Invalid buffer." message.</p>
<p>Second time I execute the code then I get a bad message:</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>--> exec('C:\Users\claus\Documents\Scilab54\z3mfit.sce', -1)<br /> at line 93 of executed file C:\Users\claus\Documents\Scilab54\z3mfit.sce<br /> <br /> 'labels_font_size' , 3,...<br /> ^^<br /> Error: syntax error, unexpected "'", expecting "," or )</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p>When I run my script, the first thing my code does - it clears all variables, all graphics and clears console, so it's not "old" stuff from previous run that is the problem. Or ???</p>
<p>The "line 93" is part of the default options in Prettify, where it says labels_font_size. It looks like this:</p>

<p>Can anyone spot, what is the problem?</p>
<p>P.S. This part of the code is in a section that is controlled by an if-statement, and even if I make sure the condition is false (so that the Prettify code is not executed), Scilab still spits out this error. It's really weird - and even weirder it doesn't get the error the first time that the code is executed.</p>
<p>P.S. My entire code is ca. 915 lines long + requires input data, so I prefer not to attach it to a post here in the mailing list.</p>
<p>Best regards,</p>
<p>Claus</p>
