Marking as Won't Fix.  There are many workarounds as mentioned in comment #1, and the qt toolkit is the focus of development effort now.

Confirmed on Octave 3.8.0 with gnuplot 4.6, GNUTERM set to x11, and the following line in ~/.Xresources:


gnuplot*background: black


The plot background itself remains white, but the background of the area outside the axes becomes black, which makes the axis labels unreadable.

Does not affect other gnuplot terminal types such as wxt or qt.

Obvious workarounds include using fltk (which is now the default in 3.8.0), using other gnuplot terminal types, or not using this setting in gnuplot.

octave forces a white background on gnuplot (default is black on my system) Whenever I zoom in, the background changes to black and the text is unreadable.

When I use whitebg() to turn the background color to black,
zooming works fine... unfortunately the text is missing while printing after whitebg()

I can use whitebg() to change the plotting window back to a white background and plotting works fine again... but whenever opening a new plotting window after using whitebg() ever, the text remains unreadable no matter what I try.
