Description openfig is designed for use with GUI figures. Use this function to:
2-1578
Open the FIG-file creating the GUI and ensure it is displayed on screen. This
provides compatibility with different screen sizes and resolutions.
Control whether MATLAB displays one or multiple instances of the GUI at
any given time.
Return the handle of the figure created, which is typically hidden for GUIs
figures.
openfig('filename.fig','new') opens the figure contained in the FIG-file,
filename.fig, and ensures it is visible and positioned completely on screen.
You do not have to specify the full path to the FIG-file as long as it is on your
MATLAB path. The .fig extension is optional.
openfig('filename.fig','new','invisible') or
openfig('filename.fig','reuse','invisible') opens the figure as in the
preceding example, while forcing the figure to be invisible.
openfig('filename.fig','new','visible') or
openfig('filename.fig','new','visible') opens the figure, while forcing
the figure to be visible.
openfig('filename.fig','reuse') opens the figure contained in the FIG-file
only if a copy is not currently open; otherwise openfig brings the existing copy
forward, making sure it is still visible and completely on screen.
openfig('filename.fig') is the same as openfig('filename.fig','new').
openfig(...,'PropertyName',PropertyValue,...) opens the FIG-file
setting the specified figure properties before displaying the figure.
