Not that I followed the code, John, but after a resize you always need to test that the %gr size is not 0 (in either direction), otherwise you get a divide by zero error when you recalculate scales.

The program that you posted is truncated.
What are the missing lines?

I have looked at your code and fixed the first bug that I noticed - the access violation when the window is minimised.

I started to look at the issue regarding x_max but it was not obvious to me what the problem is here. Is it not possible to present a short program and simpler information about what is wrong?

I have come back to this and I can now see the "problem".

x_min and x_max are provided for small adjustments to the end points. A small adjustment can reveal a missing end tick mark and value on the x axis. It says this somewhere in the documentation.

Clearly you were expecting something more fundamental but that is not in the current design.

As I said, x_min and x_max are only provided for you to make small adjustments to the end points. What you are expecting is not currently in the design and so is not implemented. Please don't ask for this to be changed because there are many far more important things that need doing.

I will take a look at the documentation and the image presented (I am trusting that it is an important error).

Item i) My guess is that this is what most users would want and expect.

Item ii) I agree, there is room for improvement. (It is surprisingly difficult to get the position just right for various fonts etc.)

Never-the-less, I am still hopeful that %pl will prove to be a useful addition to the library.

John,

Please look at my answer to the post you cross-referenced.
