    Syntax

    spec = plannerLineSpec.tree
    spec = plannerLineSpec.tree(Name=Value)
    [spec,structData] = plannerLineSpec.tree(___)

    Description

    spec = plannerLineSpec.tree specifies default color, line, and marker properties for plotting the forward search tree.

    example

    spec = plannerLineSpec.tree(Name=Value) specifies new values for the color, line, and marker properties by using one or more name-value arguments.

    example

    [spec,structData] = plannerLineSpec.tree(___) returns the properties and their values as a structure using any combination of inputs from the previous syntaxes.
