Hi, I have this functioj that draws a grid on an image

function drawGrid(RowSize,ColSize,IM,ax)
    % Rowsize=512
    % Colsize=256
    [height,width]=size(IM); 
    nRows=floor(height/RowSize);
    nCols=floor(width/ColSize);  
       hold(ax,"on");
       for i=1:nRows     %plot Col Lines          
            plot(ax,[1 width],[i*RowSize i*RowSize],'r','LineWidth',0.2) 
       end 
       
       for i=1:nCols   %Plot Row Lines
           XX=i*floor(width/nCols);         
           plot(ax,[XX XX],[1 height],'r','LineWidth',0.2)
       end    
        hold(ax,"off");
end

I want to be able to toggle the whole grid on or off once its drawn. So I was wondering

1: How to group all the lines to one object?

2: If I pass that "object" as an output, how can I toggle on or off.

Thanks

Jason

hello

To group multiple lines into a single "object" in MATLAB, you can use a hggroup or hgtransform object.

here your code updated with hggroup

im = imread('your_image_here.jpg');
figure
imshow(im)
RowSize=40; % whatever number you want
ColSize=40; % whatever number you want 
group = drawGrid(RowSize,ColSize,im,gca);
% Toggle visibility of the group
set(group, 'Visible', 'off'); % Hide all lines in the group
% and
set(group, 'Visible', 'on');  % Show all lines in the group
%%%%%%%%%%%%
function group = drawGrid(RowSize,ColSize,IM,ax)
    % Rowsize=512
    % Colsize=256
    [height,width,p]=size(IM); 
    nRows=floor(height/RowSize);
    nCols=floor(width/ColSize);  
       hold(ax,"on");
   % Group the lines into a single object
    group = hggroup; % create group
       for i=1:nRows     %plot Col Lines          
            prow{i} = plot(ax,[1 width],[i*RowSize i*RowSize],'r','LineWidth',0.2) ;
            set(prow{i} , 'Parent', group);
       end 
       
       for i=1:nCols   %Plot Row Lines
           XX=i*floor(width/nCols);         
           pcol{i} = plot(ax,[XX XX],[1 height],'r','LineWidth',0.2);
           set(pcol{i} , 'Parent', group);
       end    
        hold(ax,"off");
end

Hi, Im using 2024b. Here is my code

function group=drawGrid(RowSize,ColSize,IM,ax)
    % IM is the image
    % ax is the uiaxes to display the lines on (which also has the image IM)
    
    [height,width]=size(IM); 
    nRows=floor(height/RowSize);
    nCols=floor(width/ColSize);
      
    hold(ax,"on");
    % Group the lines into a single object
    group = hggroup; % create group
    
       for i=1:nRows     %plot Col Lines          
            prow{i}=plot(ax,[1 width],[i*RowSize i*RowSize],'r','LineWidth',0.2);         
            set(prow{i} , 'Parent', group);
       end 
       
       for i=1:nCols   %Plot Row Lines
           XX=i*floor(width/nCols);         
           pcol{i}=plot(ax,[XX XX],[1 height],'r','LineWidth',0.2);
           set(pcol{i} , 'Parent', group);
       end    
        hold(ax,"off");
end

And this is how I call it

        clc;
        ax=app.UIAxes; ax2=app.UIAxes2;  cla(ax2,"reset"); CL=ax.CLim;      
       
        IM=getimage(ax);  [sy,sx]=size(IM);
        RemoveAnnotations(app,ax); RemoveAnnotations(app,ax2);
        xl=400; xr=10650;  yt=0; yb=0;   % For image crop         
      
        
        n=numel(app.imgArray);    % app.imgArray = my images
        data=[];
        
         for i=1:n      
                 % Get Image from ImageStack (already created)
                 app.ImSpinner.Value=i;     
                 data(i,1)=i;
                 IM=app.imgArray{i};   % This is where my images are!
                 [sy,sx]=size(IM);
                 
                 if i==1
                    cla(ax,"reset");
                    app.myimage=imagesc(ax, IM);  colormap(ax,'gray');  axis(ax,'image');  set(ax,'xtick',[]);  set(ax,'ytick',[]);                             
                 else    
                     % This is faster to view images by using CData
                     RemoveAnnotations(app,ax);
                     set(app.myimage, 'CData', IM);    % Update the image data using handle app.myimage (much faster)      
                 end  
                                                  
                 % Crop  Image & autoscale
                 rect=[xl, yb, xr-xl,sy-yt-yb];   %[x, y, width, height] 
                 hold(ax,'on') 
                 rectangle(ax,'Position',rect, 'EdgeColor','y','LineWidth',1);                     
                 IM=imcrop(IM,rect); cla(ax,"reset");
                 myImagesc(app, ax, IM);  cl=[0.15,0.15,0.2]; ax.Color=cl;   drawnow; 
                 [sy,sx]=size(IM);

         end   
         

where

Ok thsnks for your help and introducing me to hggrouo.

I think i have an easier way, but have run into another issue, so i will post a new question.
