drawnow

Description

Considering the current figure, this function can be used to draw the hidden graphics entities and all its chidren, that may have been postponed by a previous call to drawlater. The immediate_drawing property of the current figure is set to "on".

It can specially be used with the drawlater function.

Examples

f=get("current_figure") // handle of the current figure
  
drawlater()
subplot(221);
t=1:10;plot2d(t,t.^2)
subplot(222);
x=0:1:7;plot2d(x,cos(x),2) 
subplot(234);
plot2d(t,cos(t),3);
subplot(235);
plot2d(x,sin(2*x),5); 
subplot(236);
plot2d(t,tan(2*t));  
 
draw(gca()); //draw the current axes and its children
draw(f.children([3 4])); // draw the specified axes and their children
drawnow(); // draw the current figure
