MATLAB: Print slx to image – zoom

imageMATLABprintsimulink

I am printing Simulink slx models to (jpeg) images, following the guide here: https://nl.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/80966-how-to-save-simulink-model-as-picture

The end goal is to use the images in our software documentation (generated html).

For smaller models (and subsystems), the print implicitly zooms to have a larger image. Those images are included in the generated html, and it looks messy when not all images are at the same zoom level. I would like to print all models to max 100% zoom. How can i do that?

The 'PaperPosition' property can be used to control the size of the saved/printed figures. The following link gives more information on the same:

use

ModelName  % to open the model
print('-sModelName','-dtiff','model.tiff')

to save ModelName.mdl in TIFF format. Image name will be model.tiff

Dear Mr. Busfield,

As you may already know SLX is a compressed package that conforms to the Open Packaging Conventions (OPC) interoperability standard. SLX stores model information using Unicode® UTF-8 in XML and other international formats. Therefore in Simulink it is easy to export an slx file to an xml file.

What you may can try is to write the following in the MATLAB prompt:

>> save_system('model.mdl', 'model_xml.xml','ExportToXML', true);

A second possibility is that you save the mdl file in Simulink (2014 Version) to a slx file. In principle, if you upgrade an MDL file to SLX file format, the file contains the same information as the MDL file, and you always have a backup file. Now you could compare the xml files.

More information can be found in this documentation.

Kind regards, Christiaan
