MATLAB: Strange behavior of hgtransform

errorhgtransfrom

The following very simple code, taken from a book, does not work and I can't figure out why

hPlot = plot(0:0.1:10, sin(0:0.1:10));
hGroup = hgtransform;

this returns the following error message

Attempt to call constructor hgtransform with incorrect letter case. Error in <file_name> (line 2)

Any idea why? Thanks

Jean

One of the routines needed by hgtransform is being shadowed by one of your routines.

I think this is probably a bug in how the ZBuffer renderer does its lighting computations. If you change the figure's renderer to OpenGL, it should look fine:

set(gcf, 'Renderer', 'OpenGL')

One caveat: the OpenGL renderer does not support Phong lighting. So you will notice that even though the patch's FaceLighting property is set to 'phong' it will fall back to Gouraud-style shading when you change renderers.

MATLAB: Can’t run the example plot

You have created your own routine with the same name as one of the MATLAB routines, and your routine is being called instead of MATLAB's.

I cannot tell at the moment what routine this is happening for, but probably you have your own get.m routine ("get" is a built-in routine for MATLAB so no line number or source would be available if it was the MATLAB "get" that was being invoked.)

which -all get
