I have a 3 monitor Gentoo Linux system running MATLAB. MATLAB runs on the center monitor. I need MATLAB to generate plots on the left monitor but it always plots on the right monitor. I believe this is at least partially caused by the non-standard way I have my monitors arranged physically - essentially 2,3,1: >> get(0,'MonitorPositions') ans = 1 1 1920 1080 -3839 1 1920 1080 -1919 1 1920 1080 Is there a way I can control this as a default within MATLAB? You can set the default figure position on the root object like so: set(0, 'DefaultFigurePosition', [-3839 1 1920 1080]); This will create

I'm using the below code to save a figure: fig1=figure('visible','off'); b = bar(bar_res); x={'a' ;'b' ;'c'; 'd' ;'e'; 'f' ;'g'; 'h';... 'i'; 'j' ;'k'; 'l'; 'm'; 'n' ;'o'; 'p' ;'q' ;'r'; 's';... 't';'u'}; set(gca,'XTickLabel',x,'XTick',1:21); rotateXLabels( gca, 90 ); with=char('Res with dash'); without=char('Res without dash'); legend('Reference',with,without,'Location','northwest'); set(gca,'FontSize',16); y=ylabel('Number of trials','rot',90,'FontSize',18); set(y,'Units','Normalized','Position',[-0.15, 0.5, 0]); savefig('a.fig'); saveas(gca, 'a.png'); But I don't know why there is extra

In the examples below, there are some obvious code differences in each case, but I don't understand how they would change the orientation of the image or the plot, as shown in each case. The original image has a size of 407 x 813 x 3. For the data in the contour, X ranges from -180 to +175, Y ranges from -85 to +85 For the image, I am trying to fit it so that X ranges from -180 to +180, Y ranges from -90 to +90. So the image covers a slightly wider geographic range than the image does. I have a contour plot of some geographic data. It plots like this, and looks like I expect it to look: The

In Matlab, I create a fairly complicated 3D plot, then manipulate the view option by hand up to a point where I am happy with what I see (below). How can I reuse the parameters of the final view? I can get the output of the view command which is a 4 by 4 matrix, but the latter does not seem to be reusable? In order to get something out of view that you can then pass to view to reconstruct the viewpoint, you need to specify two outputs to view which will yield the current azimuth and elevation. [az, el] = view(ax1); You can then pass these to view on a different (or the same) axes to specify

I cant seem to figure out how to plot dates in Matlab that aren't in numerical order. The dates I need are from January 22nd to Feburary 1st, but when I put it in Matlab it goes in numerical order starting from the 1st. So I was wondering how to get it so that it goes in order of the list I have. Here is the code I've made: date = [22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 1 2 3 4]; in_bed = [3 8 26 76 225 298 258 233 189 128 68 29 14 4]; convalescent = [0 0 0 0 9 17 105 162 176 166 150 85 47 20]; plot(date,in_bed,'*',date,convalescent,'*') xlabel('Janurary -- Feburary') ylabel('Number of Cases') legend(

I have a Matlab program where I need to include a plane icon (Zapf Dingbats 40) in the plot. Everytime I run it, it falls back to a system font. Is there anything that I am doing wrong? This is not the exact code, but illustrates the problem: title(char(40),'fontname','ZapfDingbats','fontsize',50); The resulting plot always displays ( instead of the Dingbats plane icon ✈ . I verified that the font is installed and I can type with it on Word. I am using Matlab R2013b on Mac OSX 10.9.1 . EDIT: It prints correctly to a pdf, but does not display correctly. You may use the 'Wingdings' font for that
