MATLAB: Figure Editor: how to change default settings

figure editorsettings

R2010a is installed on two computers (in different places). Someway, while same simple command >>fplot('x.^2',[0 1]), Figure Editor runs at different setting — the 1st computer plot white background for axes, the 2nd — black one. Of course, I suppuse that default colormaps differ. I need the same snapshots!

How to repair situation?

One MATLAB has its colordef as black.

colordef black
figure
fplot('x.^2',[0 1])
colordef white
figure  
fplot('x.^2',[0 1])

See the documentation for COLORDEF. I've always liked colordef black though...

MATLAB: Do I get a white figure background when exporting a figure with another background color

This is an issue of setting the right preferences for exporting the figure in MATLAB 7.1 (R14SP3) when using other background colors than white.

There is a default setting 'w' (for white) in the figure menu under File > Export Setup > Rendering > Custom Color. When you remove the checkmark, the background color will not be reset.

Programmatically, this can be done using the property InvertHardCopy of the figure.

surf(peaks);
set(gcf,'Color',[0.2 0.2 0.2]);
set(gcf,'InvertHardCopy','Off');
print('-f1', '-r600', '-djpeg', 'peaksfig');

A detailed explanation about printing and exporting in the current release of MATLAB is given at the following link:

MATLAB: How to clear all fitting settings

It is your data. They are not in sequence along the X axis, and so this is how the Y values are plotted.

Something like this:

>> X = [0:0.01:3*pi/2,0]; % the RHS zero is out of sequence!
>> Y = sin(X);
>> plot(X,Y)
