If f
is the figure handle, I wanted to use plot3(..)
on it just like I would use plot(..)
, but this didn't work:
>> plot3(f, t, real(Y), imag(Y))
Error using plot3
Vectors must be the same lengths.
Then I figured out that the way to do this is to:
First make the relevant figure current.
Then use the plot3(..)
function.
I can find what the current figure is using gcf
, but how do I make a figure current (via its handle)?
This method has my personal preference:
set(0, 'currentfigure', f); %# for figures
set(f, 'currentaxes', axs); %# for axes with handle axs on figure f
because these commands are their own documentation. I find
figure(f)
and the like confusing on first read -- do you create a new figure? or merely make an existing one active? -> more reading of the context is required.
