MATLAB: How to standardize figure sizes

figuresize;

Hiya,

I want my figures to all be created in the same dimension. Currently my figures are the size of the window it opens in (which are usually quite small) and I have to stretch it out. Is there a way for them to open up a preset size?

Thanks

Yewande

 figure('position', [0, 0, 400, 300])

There are several ways to ensure that your objects maintain a consistent look when printing. With MATLAB you can do the following:

1) Set the PaperPositionMode of the figure to 'auto'. The following command forces the figure's size and location on the printed page to directly reflect the figure's size on the screen:

      set(gcf,'PaperPositionMode','auto')

2) Set the figure's screen position to the same dimensions as the figure's PaperPosition.

      ppos = get(gcf,'PaperPosition');
      su = get(gcf,'Units');
      pu = get(gcf,'PaperUnits');  
      set(gcf,'Units',pu);
      spos = get(gcf,'Position');
      set(gcf,'Position',[spos(1) spos(2) ppos(3) ppos(4)])
      set(gcf,'Units',su)

You can do this using the following set of commands:

imshow('board.tif')

This could be implemented as follows:

set(gca,'units','pixels') % set the axes units to pixels

x = get(gca,'position') % get the position of the axes
set(gcf,'units','pixels') % set the figure units to pixels
y = get(gcf,'position') % get the figure position
set(gcf,'position',[y(1) y(2) x(3) x(4)])% set the position of the figure to the length and width of the axes
set(gca,'units','normalized','position',[0 0 1 1]) % set the axes units to pixels
