d.grid text label problems

Hi,

is this still the case since the last round of d.grid text placement bug fixes?

Replying to hamish:

Yes, looks as before.

ok, as per ticket subject this is only an issue in trunk, in 6.x all is ok.

mostly fixed in trunk with r57714.

remaining issues:

• there's some code in plot.c and plotborder.c to pull back the east and southern borders by 1 display pixel, but it's not working right, sometimes (~50%) they are off the edge of the window. I presume it's another +0.5 pixel thing and had a try at fixing it, but no luck. (grid lines too, but if present the border hides those sins)

• geogrid (-g) lines are not clipped to frame (at least with the lines of longitude crossing the western and northern region border). How to make D_line_abs() clipped by the region box? (plot.c line 288)

also it would be nice if latitude and northing text which would cross or exceed the region frame would be clipped to it, or not rendered at all.

The last comment is 3 years old. What is the status of this ticket? Probably something what could be done within GSoC 2016?

The main problem was fixed 3 years ago, I don't know how to reproduce the other things. Create a new ticket if necessary.
