FLTK is no longer actively supported in Octave.  I would recommend working with the qt or gnuplot toolkits.  Closing report.

I believe the issue should still be checked for reproducibility using the laste stable version of 5.1.0.

Unfortunately, this bug is about the FLTK toolkit, so the fix for bug #54187 can't have changed anything here.

Oops, sorry. In my comment #6 I put the wrong reference. I wanted to link to bug #54187 instead (Rik's comment 12 of that one).

@Harmut: What other bug report are you referencing in comment #6? The one you linked to is this one.

In bug #49758 (comment 12 there), Rik mentioned that the patch that solves that issue will likely also solve this issue. So if some MacOS user is willing and able to compile Octave from source he or she could test if this patch really is a solution to this issue under MacOS. Or, since this patch will most likely go into the upcoming 5.0 release of Octave, one could just wait until this new Octave version is (pre-)released and then test this issue with the new 5.0 version of Octave.

(I also cannot reproduce this crash under linux, with versions 4.4 or 5.0 of Octave.)

I'm pretty sure this is Mac OS only and related to threading and that there is no solution for the time being other than using gnuplot.  You might ask on the octave-help list about this.

Upgrading to 4.2.0 does not seem to have fixed this:

Octave 4.0.3 is deprecated and no longer supported.  Could you upgrade to the newly released 4.2.0 and try to reproduce the issue.

This happens when using the fltk graphics toolkit, it does not happen when using the gnuplot toolkit.  Qt is not listed as available by available_graphics_toolkits

Does this happen for Qt only?  What happens when you try:

graphics_toolkit fltk

and then repeat the process?

when closing fullscreen plot, octave-cli crashes with segmentation fault:

example:

octave:1> plot(1,1)
octave:2> %make plot full screen by clicking green 'maximize' button on plot title bar
octave:2> %close plot using file menu or pressing esc key
octave:2> panic: Segmentation fault: 11 -- stopping myself...
attempting to save variables to 'octave-workspace'...
save to 'octave-workspace' complete
Segmentation fault: 11


This doesn't happen with octave, only with octave-cli

I am using OSX 10.11.6, and octave 4.0.3, which was installed using macports with the following variant options selected: +accelerate +app +docs +fltk +gfortran +graphicsmagick +qt4gui +sound
