set arrow in the foreground

[Klaus Leopold]

hi,

how can I paint arrows in front of everything else?

I've something like this:

set arrow...
set arrow...
set arrow...

plot ....

The plot is in the foreground and the arrows are in the background - how can
I change this (plot in the background, arrows in the foreground)?

thanks in advance,

Klaus

Read the documentation.

gnuplot> help set arrow
[...]
{front | back}
[...]
If `front` is given, the arrow is written on top of the graphed data. If
`back` is given (the default), the arrow is written underneath the graphed
data. Using `front` will prevent a arrow from being obscured by dense data.

I read it before and it said:

set arrow {<tag>} {from <position>} {to <position>} {{no}head}
{ {linestyle | ls <line_style>}
| {linetype | lt <line_type>}
{linewidth | lw <line_width} }

I guess I'll have to download the latest version. I'm using

which is quite old I belive.

Anyway, thanks.
