The changeset

http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/e81914f3921f

add the horizontal alignment of the legend, as well as lots of other things, so I'm closing this feature request.

Since I'm working on a frontend implementation of legends, I'm assigning this feature request to me

Octave currently uses the gnuplot legends directly and so is limited to what gnuplot itself supports. This also means that the FLTK backend doesn't support legends at all. There  is discussion underway to implement legends as text placed directly on the axes in the same manner as matlab does and when this is done, horizontal placement might be supported on all backends. I hope this will be done for Octave 3.4 as missing legends is a major reason the FLTK backend is still unusable.

In Matlab you can change the orientation of a legend to vertical or horizontal by

legend('orientation', 'vertical'); % The default in Octave

or

legend('orientation', 'horizontal'); % Not possible in Octave

I would like to see this in Octave also! I think that GNUplot supports it anyway.

P.S.: I read the discussion on using a bug tracker for Octave and I definately vote for it!!! So this is my first bug report for Octave ever!
