The underlying problem of having a null ("") graphics toolkit has been fixed in the development code that is about to become the 4.0 release. For the time being, I would just put the line

in your .octaverc file so that it is always set at start-up.

tried graphics_toolkit() ... I don't know why but there was none.

Reset it with graphics_toolkit("gnuplot")

and now its working again.

Is there a possibility that this "blanking" o the graphics_toolkit-entry happens during a update routine of ubuntu?

thx for the input.

greets

Which toolkit are you using? I tried both fltk and gnuplot with the following code and it works.

Hello!

I've repeatedly tried to export my figures to svg files.

Every time there is a hang-up / crash when I'm using the following command

a the lengths of the vectors are 864000, of the vector(s) Avref and Avsec.
TAXIS is just a linearly increasing time axis.

During export of SVG file the file itself is generated but keeps size 0 kByte - I've waited 15 min, no change - Octave itself hangs and can only be stopped by pressing repeatedly CTRL+C. Happens ind GUI as well as terminal versions.

I've tried this in Octave 3.8.1 as well as Octave 3.8.2. Same results.

Then I tried to reduce the amounts of data points for debugging. with the following commands.

With this parameters the export worked.
Worked with this parameters too:

If tried this many times with multiples of 2^n.
But only if the length is smaller than 8192 the output works.
8192 equals to 2^13 if I'm correct?

Is there a limitation inbound in the print command when using svg file export?

All other operations with those vectors react as usual.
