Using gnuplot, I would like to stack 5 contour plots together, meaning no white spaces between them. I can't get it to work for some reason. any help is appreciated.

#! /usr/bin/gnuplot
reset
set terminal epslatex color size 7in,2in 
set output "s.pdf"
set multiplot layout 1,5

set lmargin 0
set bmargin 0
set tmargin 0
set rmargin 0

set size square
set pm3d map

unset colorbox 
unset key

set format x "";
set format y "";
set xlabel "";
set ylabel "";
splot x*x+y*y 
splot x*x+y*y
splot x*x+y*y
splot x*x+y*y
splot x*x+y*y

unset multiplot

Is there a way to do it without adjusting a position of each plot? It works for normal plots like here http://gibuu.physik.uni-giessen.de/GiBUU/wiki/HowToGnuplotStacked but not for pm3d.

This might make more sense on SuperUser—while gnuplot feels like a friend of TeX (with the right packages), I imagine you'd get a higher number of knowledgeable gnuplot users there (though I don't use the site myself). – Antal S-Z Dec 5 '10 at 22:05
As posed this question has nothing to do with TeX, so I'm voting to close. I am unsure what the correct site for pure gnuplot questions is, either StackOverflow or SuperUser. Both have lots of gnuplot questions. – Caramdir Dec 5 '10 at 22:58
i moved the question to superuser superuser.com/questions/218808/… – kirill_igum Dec 5 '10 at 23:48
As you've already moved it, I've just closed this as "off topic". – Andrew Stacey Feb 8 '11 at 9:28
