Introduction (Using MATLAB Graphics)

Using MATLAB Graphics

Handle Graphics

You can more precisely control the way MATLAB displays data or you can develop your own graphics commands using Handle Graphics, MATLAB's object-oriented graphics system. Handle Graphics defines a set of graphics objects, such as lines, surfaces, and text, and provides mechanisms to manipulate the characteristics of these objects to achieve the desired results. You can use Handle Graphics in a number of ways:

On the command line, you can "fine tune" the appearance of your plots by altering the properties of the graphics objects used to display your data.
In M-files, you can define your own graphics commands that provide precise control over the graphics display.
Within existing M-files, which include many high-level graphics commands, you can customize the behavior to meet your specific requirements.
