When I save a figure to a file (saveas , hgexport) the figure is re-sized. How do I save a figure to a file that is identical to the screen figure (i.e. not resized)? Why isn't this the default for saving figures?

I have changed the figure size using:

figure('OuterPosition',[1 1 scrsz(3)/1.1 scrsz(4)/1.1]);

When I attempt to save the figure to a file (png, bmp, jpg) using saveas or hgexport, the figure size is resized back to default. How do I avoid this?

Using the figure window menu bar and edit>copy figure copies the screen figure to the clipboard without re-sizing. Why isn't this easy to do with Matlab commands?

Try using the print function. This should do the trick.

You probably need to look at the figure PrintPosition and PrintPositionMode properties.

What I am trying to do is very simple -- just save the figure exactly as it is drawn on the screen, just like the GUI-copy-figure command does. It seems to me like the answer should be equally simple. I have looked at the print command and it appears that there are several variables that control scaling, position and resolution. I'm still hoping that there is a simple answer.

I did search the help database for paper Position Mode and I found the following. This does solve the problem. Thanks for your help.

set(gcf,'PaperPositionMode','auto') % Use screen size

You need to change the Resolution in the factorystyle to 0:

                style = hgexport('factorystyle'); % get the style
                style.Resolution = 0;   % Resolution = 0 meanst use the screen resolution
                hgexport(data,'-clipboard',style);
