Colour fill plots do not keep their aspect ratio when resizing

Description

When a 2D colour fill plot is resized and its aspect ratio is set as fixed the plot should keep the correct ratio. Currently it does not.

This is particularly misleading the a SANS 2D reduction where artifacts of the reduction can become warped.

Keep aspect ratio of 2D color plots Re #1773

  • Resolution set to fixed

To test:
When plotting a 2D color fill plot, the aspect ratio of the plot will be kept when resizing the plot window. To turn this off, go in the Properties dialog of the plot and uncheck the option called "keep aspect ratio on window resize".

Note: the tick box in the properties dialog only appears for color fill plots.

I found the default value of the "keep aspect ratio on window resize" was no tick. When ticked the aspect ratio was preserved. When the width was reduced, the plot was shrunk to fit. When widened, the top and bottom of the plot were not shown. The default is reset on each run of Mantidplot.
