I have the same problem with qt backend.

Setting 'units' to 'pixels' or 'points' for a legend pins it to a fixed place in the window. Resizing the windows resizes all plots and legends inside it, except this one.

Unfortunately not all properties can be supported with the gnuplot backend which is an independent program.  Try using the qt toolkit for the best support by Octave and performance.

The documentation for axis properties at:

https://octave.org/doc/v5.1.0/Axes-Properties.html#XREFaxesposition

says for the "position" property: "Specify the position of the plot excluding titles, axes, and legend. The four elements of the vector are the coordinates of the lower left corner and width and height of the plot, in units normalized to the width and height of the plot window."

When I run the following test:

graphics_toolkit("gnuplot")
plot(1:10,2:2:20)
hax=gca()
set(hax,"units","pixels")
get(hax,"position")
get(hax,"plotboxaspectratio")
axis equal
get(hax,"position")
get(hax,"plotboxaspectratio")
axis([-20 20 -20 20])
get(hax,"position")
get(hax,"plotboxaspectratio")


I see that the shape of the plot axes box changes but the "position" property does not change.
