Well it's good that there is a simple workaround for you. To make it permanent set the default property on the root figure, perhaps in your .octaverc file.

I'm going to close the bug report because there's nothing we can do about it in Octave code. Some drivers and video cards just appear to have this problem, and we want to maintain compatibility with Matlab which uses 0.5 as the default line width.

Looks like changing the line width fixes it. I've attached all screenshots.

Octave has turned on anti-aliasing in 3.8.1 for FLTK plots. However, we have had reports that some graphics cards, particularly from Intel, don't seem to implement this well. But this is not an Octave problem as we are correctly setting things up on our side.

For debugging it would be useful to have a very simple example.

Is this enough to demonstrate the problem?

If so, could you post that picture?

Second, what happens if you change the linewidth?

I'm currently on version 3.8.1, and when plotting with FLTK it's buggy, it appears to be the anti-aliasing.

When using version 3.8.0 it lookes much worse. This new bug forked from this bug:

https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?41819

When plotting:

>plot(x, y, 'x', 'MarkerSize', 10);


The Xs have a different weight on each diagonal. I'm attaching four screenshots, showing the differences between gnuplot and FLTK.

The command I used for the Xs was:

>plot(x, y, 'x', 'MarkerSize', 10);


for the sin curve it was:

> plot (x, sin (x));


The sin curve is just for reference, as it looks fine, although the antialiasing could look a bit smoother.
