xsave

Arguments

file_name

string, name of the file.

win_num

integer, the graphics window number. If not given, the current graphics window is used.

Description

xsave saves the graphics contained in the graphics window win_num in the binary file file_name. and can be reloaded with xload.

Since Scilab 5.0, all uimenu or uicontrol handles are also saved.

For graphics xsave(file_name,win_num) use preferably save(file_name,scf(win_num)).

Examples

t=0:0.01:10;
subplot(211),plot2d(t,sin(t))
subplot(212),plot2d(t,sin(3*t))
xsave(TMPDIR + "/foo.scg", gcf())
clf()
xload(TMPDIR + "/foo.scg")

a=gca();
curve=a.children.children; //handle on the curve
save(TMPDIR + "/foo.scg", "curve")
delete(curve)
load(TMPDIR + "/foo.scg")
