MATLAB: Plot3 properties

Question

I want to configure a graphic with a differents colors and types of lines, per each line that there is in my graphic.

For example:

mat %matrix
plot3(mat(:,1),mat(:,2),mat(:,3));

How can I change the call to plot3()?

Answer 1

The broad answer to your question is that you need to use "handle graphics." If you call plot3 with an output argument:

>> h = plot3(...)

that "handle" h gives you access to the properties of the line objects in the plot.

>> get(h)

will list the properties, which you can then adjust with the "set" command.

There is a lot of info in the documentation on how to do this.
