printToFigure

Use the printToFigure function to print the timescope object display window to a new MATLAB® figure.

View a sine wave on the time scope. This plot shows the default color and style settings of the timescope object.

f = 100;
fs = 1000;
swv = sin(2.*pi.*f.*(0:1/fs:1-1/fs)).';
scope = timescope(SampleRate=fs,...
    TimeSpanSource="property", ...
    TimeSpan=1);
scope(swv);

Change the background color and the axes color of the plot to "white". Set the font color to "black" and the line color to "blue".

scope.BackgroundColor = "white";
scope.AxesColor = "white";
scope.FontColor = "black";
scope.LineColor = "blue";
show(scope)
release(scope)

Print the display of the sine wave to a new MATLAB figure. The function returns a handle to the figure.

scopeFig = printToFigure(scope);

The handle to the figure scopeFig lets you modify the appearance and the behavior of the figure window.

Specify a figure name and change the size of the figure to 400-by-250 pixels.

scopeFig.Name="Sine Wave Signal";
scopeFig.NumberTitle="off";
scopeFig.Position=[1 1 400 250];

When printing to figure, you can make the figure invisible by setting the Visible argument to false.

scopeFig = printToFigure(scope,Visible=false);
