MATLAB: Problem in saving figure

export figuresave figuure

hgexport(gcf, 'figure1.jpg', hgexport('factorystyle'), 'Format', 'jpeg');

By using above function I am saving figure which is shown below:

But I want to save it as shown below: (with outer white portion of image)

How can I do so?

This answer illustrates the how-to well. Simply clip the figure based on its size.

My mistake. I didnt know that the units of my axes are set to pixels when creating it. Adding the line

     set(handles.axes1,'units','normalized')

solved my problems.

Use sprintf or plain string concatenation to build your string:

hgexport(gcf, sprintf('%s.tif', name), options);
%or
hgexport(gcf, [name, '.tif'], options);
