I can't reproduce this. I tried the latest gretl build on Windows 
XP, running from a console window after setting LANG=es, and with 
the preference set to use the locale decimal separator.  Graphs 
were OK.

Can you give any more details -- and check that under 
Preferences/Programs, the gnuplot executable is set to the 
wgnuplot.exe that's supplied with the gretl distribution?
Thanks.

Allin.
