Compatibility problems between 4.1.2 and 5.x

[Anders]

When using Scilab scripts created for version 4.1.2 I experience
several compatibility issues. Here are some:

- Legend is not in the same order when using more than one curve
- Default Title font size can not be set for Scilab 5.x (works fine
with 4.1.2)
- Windows titles for graphs are not set for Scilab 5.x (works fine
with 4.1.2)

Are these differences planned or by accident?

Is there a document describing these and other differences?

Hello,

help legend
help legend_properties

There seems to have been heavy changes in hierachy of axes and
handles.

The order have changed and hierarchy changed so that legends polylines
are not children of the legend handle anymore but are held in the
links array.
Legend position reference frame have changed as well but I could
determine it.
in the help for legend properties ;

MyLegendHandle.legend_location="by_coordinates";
MyLegendHandle.position=[x,y];

position : The coordinates of the upper left corner of the legend.
The x and y positions are given as fractions of the axes_bounds
sizes.
This field may be set if legend_location=="by_coordinates" or get for
the other legend_location settings.

The problem is that he zero is out of axes_bounds.
We'd rather have cordinates greater than one or negative to get out
the axes bounds to fit the comments in the manual.

See you,
Red.
