Didn't know that functions like 'plot' could override it.

Indeed, get (groot, "defaultaxesbox") returns "off".

Thanks for clarify.

The documentation is correct. Close this because there is nothing wrong.

How did you determine that the default value for "box" is "off" for you?
What do you see for `get (groot, "defaultaxesbox")`?

Keep in mind that some higher level functions (like `plot`) set the axes box to "on" (overriding the default value).

The documentation

https://octave.org/doc/v5.2.0/Axes-Properties.html

says that the default option for 'box' is "off"

‘box’: {"off"} | "on"
     Control whether the axes has a surrounding box.


In my installation (from source) the default is "on" and I don't remember changing it.

Kind regards,
Leonardo
