replot

Arguments

area

row vector [xmin ymin xmax ymax] or [xmin ymin zmin xmax ymax zmax]: new bounds of the area to be replotted.

Use %nan to keep a bound as is.

axeHandle

Vector of graphics handles of type Axes: Axes to crop. By default, the current Axes of the current figure is considered.

Description

replot is used to redraw the content of the current graphics axes with new boundaries defined by area = [xmin,ymin, xmax,ymax] or area = [xmin,ymin,zmin, xmax,ymax,zmax].

This transformation can be applied to specific axes given by Axes graphics handles via the axesHandles argument. If axesHandles is not specified, the new boundaries are applied to the current axes of the current figure. The transformation changes the data_bounds value of those axes.

The axes property tight_limits must be set to "on" to strictly select specified bounds (see axes_properties)

Examples

x=[0:0.1:2*%pi]';
plot2d(x,sin(x))
replot([-1,-1,10,2])

xdel(winsid());
plot() // plot demo
f=gcf();
replot([-1,-1,10,2],f.children(1)) // specify axes handle's value
replot([-3,-2,8,4],f.children(2))

// Leaving some bounds as is with %nan:
x = linspace(0,360,200).';
clf
plot2d(x,[sind(x) tand(x)])
ax = gca();
ax.data_bounds                // initial bounds
replot([%nan,-10,%nan,10])    // only Ymin and Ymax are changed
ax.data_bounds                // updated bounds
// Resizing Z bounds as well as X and Y ones in 3D view:
clf
x = linspace(-4,4,100);
X = meshgrid(x);
R = (X-0.5).^2 + (X.'+0.7).^2;
Z = sinc(R);
surf(x-0.5,x+0.7,Z)
f = gcf();
f.color_map = autumncolormap(100);
ax = gca();
ax.data_bounds
sleep(3000)
replot([-5 0 -0.4 0 5 0.5])
ax.data_bounds
// Resizing several chosen axes together:
clf
x = linspace(-%pi,%pi,400);
subplot(2,2,1)
plot2d(x,sin(1 ./sqrt(abs(x))))
ax1 = gca();
subplot(2,2,2)
plot2d(x,sinh(sqrt(abs(x))))
subplot(2,1,2)
plot2d(x,cos(1 ./sqrt(abs(x))))
ax2 = gca();
sleep(4000)
f = gcf();
replot([-1 %nan 1.5 %nan], [ax1 ax2])
