move

Arguments

h

a handle, the handle of the entity to move.

t

an array, either [dx,dy] or [dx,dy,dz], which gives the translation vector to apply.

"alone"

string keyword (optional).

Description

This routine can be used to apply a translation to a graphics entity. If the entity has children, they will be also translated.

Given the keyword "alone" , only the specified entity needs to be redrawn. It must specially be used with the pixel_drawing_mode property of the figure entity (see draw objects under "xor" drawing mode).

Examples

plot3d();
a=gca();
p=a.children(1);
t=[1,0,-1.25];
move(p,t);
