MATLAB: Does the figure print with a white background and white axes, even though I have set the axes and figure “Color” property to something other than white

You can correct this by using the InvertHardCopy property for figure windows. The following information is found in the documentation for InvertHardCopy:

 This property changes hardcopy to black objects on white background and affects only printed output. Printing a figure or axes having a background color (Color property) that is not white results in poor contrast between graphics objects and the figure background and also consumes a lot of printer toner.

This property is set to "on" by default. If you want to print figures so that the figure or axes objects have the same background color as set in the Color property, please set the InvertHardcopy property to "off". For example:

figure
plot(1:10)
set(gca, 'color', 'g')
set(gcf, 'color', 'r')
set(gcf, 'InvertHardcopy', 'off')
print -djpeg myfig.jpg

MATLAB: Whitebg limitations on color

Hello Hong,

The function 'whitebg' will change the background color of the axes, not the figure. See the documentation for 'whitebg': http://www.mathworks.com/help/releases/R2016a/matlab/ref/whitebg.html?searchHighlight=whitebg

To change the background color for the figure (i.e. the window) you can use the following command:

set(gcf,'color','white')

which will set the background color of the current figure to white. Here is a related MATLAB Answers post about changing the default background color: https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/96816-how-do-i-change-the-default-background-color-of-all-figure-objects-created-in-matlab
