IOPZPlot Properties

Access input-output pole-zero plot properties

Since R2024b

IOPZPlot properties control the appearance and behavior of pole-zero plots created using iopzplot. By changing property values, you can modify certain aspects of the plot.

iopzp = iopzplot(sys);
iopzp.FrequencyUnit = "Hz";

For more information, see Customize Linear Analysis Plots at Command Line.

If you specify the Units and Position properties in a single command (using name-value pairs), be sure to specify Units before Position.

UnitsDescription
'normalized'Normalized with respect to the parent container, which is typically the figure, panel, or tab. The lower left corner of the container maps to (0,0), and the upper right corner maps to (1,1).
'inches'Inches
'centimeters'Centimeters
'characters'

Based on the default font of the graphics root object:

  • Character width = width of letter x.

'points'Typography points. One point equals 1/72 inch.
'pixels'

Distances in pixels are independent of your system resolution on Windows® and Macintosh systems:

  • On Windows systems, a pixel is 1/96th of an inch.

  • On Macintosh systems, a pixel is 1/72nd of an inch.

On Linux® systems, the size of a pixel is determined by your system resolution.

Note

Setting this property has no effect when the parent of the chart is a TiledChartLayout.

Chart size and location, excluding the margins for decorations such as axis labels and tick marks. Specify this property as a vector of form [left bottom width height]. The values are in the units specified by the Units property.

  • left — Distance from the left edge of the parent container to the inner-left edge of the chart that excludes the margins. Typically, the parent container is a figure, panel, or tab.

  • bottom — Distance from the bottom edge of the parent container to the inner-bottom edge of the chart that excludes the margins.

  • height — Height of the chart, excluding the margins.

Note

Setting this property has no effect when the parent of the chart is a TiledChartLayout.

Position property to hold constant when adding, removing, or changing decorations, specified as one of the following values:

  • 'outerposition' — The OuterPosition property remains constant when you add, remove, or change decorations such as a title or an axis label. If any positional adjustments are needed, MATLAB® adjusts the InnerPosition property.

  • 'innerposition' — The InnerPosition property remains constant when you add, remove, or change decorations such as a title or an axis label. If any positional adjustments are needed, MATLAB adjusts the OuterPosition property.

Note

Setting this property has no effect when the parent of the chart is a TiledChartLayout.

Layout options, specified as a TiledChartLayoutOptions object or GridLayoutOptions object. This property specifies options when an instance of your chart is a child of a tiled chart layout or gridded layout. If the instance is not a child of one of these layouts (for example, it is a child of a figure or panel), then this property is empty and has no effect. Otherwise, you can position the chart within the layout by configuring the layout options.

This code places chart object c into the third tile of a tiled chart layout and makes the chart span 2 rows and 3 columns.

c.Layout.Tile = 3;
c.Layout.TileSpan = [2 3];

This code places chart object c into row 2 of a gridded layout and makes the chart span columns 3 and 4.

c.Layout.Row = 2;
c.Layout.Column = [3 4];

Properties to reset when adding a new plot to the chart, specified as one of the following values:

  • 'add' — Add new plots to the existing chart. Do not delete existing plots or reset axes properties before displaying the new plot.
