Thanks.
Just confirming that installing libgl2ps1 (1.3.9-4) and recompiling octave worked.

Hi,

Thanks for you clear report. This bug has been fixed in the latest version of gl2ps (1.3.9), but linux mint 17.3 ships with gl2ps 1.3.8. On linux, the workaround is to compile your own version of gl2ps.
I'll close this report as fixed upstream.

"here" was meant to be a link, but it's not too obvious because of the colour scheme.

Steps to reproduce:

In a terminal:

Bug: The plot within the octave session looks fine, but the file out.pdf is missing the 'whiskers' and only shows the coloured markers.

Notes:

  • Reported here first; Andy could not reproduce issue on his linux(?) installation.
  • This happens regardless of output format chosen.
  • Tested on linux mint 17.3 (based on ubuntu trusty) on a 64bit PC, and on linux mint 18 (based on ubuntu xenial) on a 64bit laptop.
  • Tested on both 4.0.3 stable, and 4.2.0-rc2 (both compiled using qt4 rather than qt5).
  • Saved pdf is as expected in matlab within the same linux environment on the PC.
  • Saved pdf is as expected in octave 4.0.2 on a windows environment on the PC.
