make gnuplot ignore string length

Show all headers | View raw

Heyho everyone,

I am using gnuplot to generate svgs with text fields containing latex
commands.

This works quite fine for x/ytics and x/ylabels, but not for keys/the
legend.

For one plot, I need to have the keys outside the graph area (below),
but since the titles contain lots of latex commands, gnuplot only prints
one of three titles in the legend because it thinks all three titles
won't fit in there.

Is there a way to tell gnuplot not to use the string length, but instead
just put the titles where they should be, ignoring the fact that they
might be overlapping?

Using enhanced mode to reduce the title's font size is not an option
since backslash processing in enhanced mode is broken ...

Thanks in advance,

bye,
Tilman
