Defining the View
The view is the particular orientation you select to display your graph or graphical scene. The term viewing refers to the process of displaying a graphical scene from various directions, zooming in or out, changing the perspective and aspect ratio, flying by, and so on.
This topic area describes how to define the various viewing parameters to objtain the view you want. Generally, viewing is applied to 3-D graphs or models, although you may want to adjust the aspect ratio of 2-D views to achieve specific proportions or make a graph fit in a particular shape.
MATLAB viewing is comprised of two basic areas:
MATLAB automatically sets the view when you create a graph. The actual view that MATLAB selects depends on whether you are creating a 2- or 3-D graph. See Default Viewpoint Selection and Default Aspect Ratio Selection for a description of how MATLAB defines the standard view.
