This worked for me: figure(‘units’,’normalized’,’outerposition’,[0 0 1 1]) or for current figure: set(gcf,’units’,’normalized’,’outerposition’,[0 0 1 1]) I have also used MAXIMIZE function on FileExchange that uses java. This is true maximization.
There are a few ways to do this. One way to do this is to get all the children of the root object (represented in prior versions by the handle 0): figHandles = get(groot, ‘Children’); % Since version R2014b figHandles = get(0, ‘Children’); % Earlier versions Or you could use the function findobj: figHandles = … Read more
Here a step by step explanation. First consider the following example: [X,Y,Z1] = peaks; figure(1) [~,h1] = contourf(X,Y,Z1,20); a1 = colorbar; colormap(jet) caxis([-6,6]) which will give you the following plot: It has linear data and a linear colormap. Now I want to scale the Z-Data to get it non-linear like in your case. I chose … Read more
In the old graphics system (R2014a and earlier) this is not possible using the built-in quiver object. You can easily get all of the plot objects that are used to compose the quiver plot q = quiver(1:5, 1:5, 1:5, 1:5); handles = findall(q, ‘type’, ‘line’); But the tails are all represented by one plot object, … Read more
The properties that can be set for a figure is referenced here. You could then use: figure_number = 1; x = 0; % Screen position y = 0; % Screen position width = 600; % Width of figure height = 400; % Height of figure (by default in pixels) figure(figure_number, ‘Position’, [x y width height]);
You can also do it with a trick which works with Matlab version anterior to 2014b (as far back as 2009a at least). However, is will never be as simple as you expected (unless you write a wrapper for one of the solution here you can forget about plot(x,y,{‘r’,’o’,’y’,’g’,’b’})). The trick is to use a … Read more
You could abuse quiver, this way you don’t have to deal with unhandy normalized figure units by use of annotation drawArrow = @(x,y) quiver( x(1),y(1),x(2)-x(1),y(2)-y(1),0 ) x1 = [10 30]; y1 = [10 30]; drawArrow(x1,y1); hold on x2 = [25 15]; y2 = [15 25]; drawArrow(x2,y2) Important is the 5th argument of quiver: 0 which … Read more
Why this happens… With plot(x(i),y) you are plotting 100 single points (one in each iteration) and they are not shown by default. Therefore the plot looks empty. Solution 1: Vectorized calculation and direct plot I assume you meant to draw a continuous line. In that case no for-loop is needed because you can calculate and … Read more
You could use a colormap such as HSV to generate a set of colors. For example: cc=hsv(12); figure; hold on; for i=1:12 plot([0 1],[0 i],’color’,cc(i,:)); end MATLAB has 13 different named colormaps (‘doc colormap’ lists them all). Another option for plotting lines in different colors is to use the LineStyleOrder property; see Defining the Color … Read more
Short answer : always use Set(‘Xdata’,…’). Example code: function PlotUpdate() x = 0:.1:8; y = sin(x); h = plot(x,y); y = sin(x.^3); set(h,’XData’,x,’YData’,y); end Long answer: There are three relevant measures by which one should choose the best method. Code clarity – How easy it is for someone to read your code? Runtime – How … Read more
