Argg, that was a subtle one -- there was a bug in backend ps which was
exposed only if you are using a path collection with offsets,
transoffset and clippath and cliprect both None. In that scenario,
the translate in the bind def function was not getting wrapped in a
gsave/grestore pair, which was causing the axes to be drawn in the
wrong place because the translate from the offset remained in effect.
I tried following the draw_markers logic and putting the
gsave/grestore in the ps_cmd, eg in draw_markers Michael writes ijn a
comment:
ps_cmd = ['/o {', 'gsave', 'newpath', 'translate'] # dont want
the translate to be global
so clearly he was bumping up against the same problem with markers.
For some reason, trying the same thing in the path_collection was not
working for me, so I resorted to the somewhat hackish approach of
forcing _draw_ps to wrap a gsave/grestore if it wasn't getting one
from the cliprect or clippath:
needwrap = not (clippath or cliprect)
if needwrap:
# we need to make sure that there is at least 1
# save/grestore around each ps write so we'll force it if
# we're not getting one from the cliprecot or clippath.
# hackish, yes
write('gsave\n')
and then
if needwrap:
write('grestore\n')
I think there will be cleaner way, but it will need some fresh
eyeballs tomorrow and this will provide a temporary fix.
