What worked was this -- grabbing the comment I added to the
code:

/*
 * Retrieve the size of the drawing area before the axes are added
 * or removed, and then set the da size afterwards using those
 * dimensions.  This prevents plots that have been reduced in size
 * from suddenly being resized up to the original default size.
*/

(I only wish I had explained all the odd bits in my code so clearly!)
