Re: [Scilab-users] Default x|y|z labels and title font size = 2?
Hi Samuel
I agree. The font is always too small. The font = 2 seems to be the
smallest feasible increment and it sounds like a good one (i.e. without
overdoing it).
You mention grid. I always do xgrid(color("grey70")); ... is this
default now, to have the grid a bit greyed?
Cheers,
Claus

Indeed, the font size = 1 is fine for ticks labels. From here, axes
labels must be displayed with a bigger font size.
Sometime size=2 is still not enough, noticeably with a LaTeX content.
But well, then we can actually use an explicit fontsize setting.

I have a comment concerning the syntax.
I'm not particularly fan of the "inline" syntax without parenthesis.
Is your:
xlabel "Title for abscissas" fontsize 2
syntaxic sugar for
xlabel( "Title for abscissas", fontsize=2)
or something equivalent?

Dear Samuel,
I also have the same feeling that larger default font size would suit better,
most of the time, as in the end the figures worked and analysed in Scilab
environment are inserted into reports.

Re: [Scilab-users] Default x|y|z labels and title font size = 2?
Hi,
+1 for this missing feature. But since the name of the concerned Label
entity property of is "font_size" I would recommend to use it instead of
"fontsize".

Re: [Scilab-users] Default x|y|z labels and title font size = 2?
Hello ,
Very good idea !
I actually defined a function to perform xtitle and immediately increase font
sizes for the axes labels, axis titles and title of the figure. I originally
set them to a size of 2 for the labels and 3 for the titles.
Still, the reviewers for publications seldom complain about too large font
sizes, much more about too small font sizes! For these applications, the risk
of having to change the font sizes upon revision of a paper is smaller with
default font sizes of 3 for the labels and 4 (or even 5 when LaTeX style is
used) for the titles …
Best regards
Denis
