Re: Possible bug related with fit command and line style color

I tried to display a graph showing the function that fits some data,
similarly as done in the fit.dem example. I noticed that, whenever I
do a fit and then try to plot a graph with customized line color, I
get the message "cb axis range undefined or overflow" and a black
graph is shown. When I clear the color setting, the graph works
again.

I can confirm the problem exists in 4.2.5
It seems to be fixed in the cvs source code for both 4.2 and 4.4,
although I don't see anything in the ChangeLog that immediately jumps
out as being related to this problem. So you should see a fixed version
in due course.

thanks for the report,

This behavior is easily reproducible for the fit.dem example, by
adding the line
set style line 1 lc rgb "#00FFFF"
before the first fit command, and adding "ls 1" to :
set title 'all fit params set to 0'
plot 'lcdemo.dat', l(x) ls 1
and:
set title 'unweighted fit'
plot 'lcdemo.dat', l(x) ls 1

Observe that the first plot is shown as expected with the changed
color. But the second one fails, although the command is identical to
the first one.
