Alan,just to confirm, QSAS does not use your colour bar code, nor does it use label_box_custom(). Alban wrote his own colour bar using plbox(). This means any change we made to label_box_custom is historical and nugatory, and only the changes to plbox() are relevant ( the else{ } ). In fact we do not include pllegend.c in our version of plplot at all, which is why I did not see label_box_custom() being called.
Hi Tony: Of course, upstream does use both label_box and label_box_custom. So from that upstream perspective, I believe the plan should be to (1) implement the test case I suggested (a simple example that plots both a box and a color bar where both require exponential labels with different custom locations for each); and (2) assuming that simple example demonstrates the bug you discovered, then fix the bug in a consistent way for both label_box and label_box_custom. I have put this plan on my ToDo list and will keep you informed of my progress once I start working on this topic (likely early in 2019). However, if you decide to work along the lines of that upstream plan yourself before I can get to it, please keep me informed of your progress as well. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
