Dear all, I am experiencing some minor issues when trying to plot things. Actually, I am not sure whether these are problems related to gnuplot or to gretl. First, I really like the new "--font=fontspec" option; thanks again for implementing this. I wrote a small function for plotting vectors which allows the user to set a bunch of different options. You can find the function at the bottom I ran the following 5 scenarios of which only scenario 1 works as intended. First there seems to be a problem with the ""literal set mono" option which rules out controlling the line width under both the "display" and "pdf" output. Second, when the output format is pdf, I also can't control the font size; irrespective of the dashed and monochrome options. Thanks for help and Happy Easter!
