MATLAB Function Reference (Volume 2: Graphics)

Root Propertieswhich does not restack the figures. In these statements, h is the handle of anexisting figure. If there are no figure objects,get(0,'CurrentFigure')returns the empty matrix. Note, however, that gcf always returns a figurehandle, and creates one if there are no figure objects.DeleteFcnstringThis property is not used since you cannot delete the root objectDiaryon | {off}Diary file mode. When this property is on, MATLAB maintains a file (whosename is specified by the DiaryFile property) that saves a copy of all keyboardinput and most of the resulting output. See also the diary command.DiaryFilestringDiary filename. The name of the diary file. The default name is diary.Echoon | {off}Script echoing mode. When Echo is on, MATLAB displays each line of a scriptfile as it executes. See also the echo command.ErrorMessage stringText of last error message. This property contains the last error message issuedby MATLAB.FixedWidthFontName font nameFixed-width font to use for axes, text, and uicontrols whose FontName is set toFixedWidth. MATLAB uses the font name specified for this property as thevalue for axes, text, and uicontrol FontName properties when their FontNameproperty is set to FixedWidth. Specifying the font name with this propertyeliminates the need to hardcode font names in MATLAB applications andthereby enables these applications to run without modification in locales wherenon-ASCII character sets are required. In these cases, MATLAB attempts toset the value of FixedWidthFontName to the correct value for a given locale.MATLAB application developers should not change this property, but shouldcreate axes, text, and uicontrols with FontName properties set to FixedWidthwhen they want to use a fixed width font for these objects.2-417
