Welcome to the world of open source software: Bug get fixed as users report them. Sadly, most people don't do that. Like you: The program clearly behaved illogically (y logscale influenced xtics x offset), but you didn't tell about it at first. That wastes not only your time but also mine. And that's why Hans-Bernhard was a bit unfriendly: He could smell you were trying to waste his'. ;-) Nevermind. Karl
