I've run into a problem with controlling the legend when using
multiplot. I want the legend to stay in 1 column on the right side
of the plot. With just a single plot per page, this works. But if I
use multiplot (4 plots per page, layout 2,2), the legend wants to
split into multiple columns, even if I try to force it to one column
with "maxcols 1". In this case, the legend is too wide and obscures
some of the plots. However, a multiple with two tall plots side by
side seems to do the right thing. So it seems like this is tied to
the size of the plot, not the page. I've recreated this with some
simple examples below. I'm using gnuplot 4.6 patchlevel 2 on CentOS
7.7.
