axis('scaled') doesn't work properly yet.
I thought axis('scaled') will change the axes such that the aspect ratio is
equal WITHOUT changing the limits on the axes.
A simple example shows that this goes wrong (I thought
I have a follow-up on my previous emai.
I don't think we should do an autoscale_view() for axis('equal') either.
For axis('equal') only the limits of either the x or y axis are adjusted
(enlarged really) until the aspect ratio is equal.
Not sure about the others. Do we ever need to do it?

I think this is a bit out of character with things like axis('equal').
Part of this character is that automatic things are turned on, so that
