Hi,

As said in the title, I want to creat a function that imposes the same setting for all open figures. By far, I managed to do:

function SetFigureDefaults
set(findall(gcf,'-property','FontSize'),'FontSize',18)
set(findall(gcf,'-property','LineWidth'),'LineWidth',2)
end

And that works. However, I am struggling with everything related with the text interpreter. I was repeating the following lines for each figure

colorbar('TickLabelInterpreter', 'latex')
set(groot,'defaulttextinterpreter','latex');
set(groot, 'defaultLegendInterpreter','latex');

Now, I want to use them with findall feature. I want that ALL axis ticks and ALL colorbar annotations (ticks and labels) become of latex form. How shall I do that ?

Thanks for your help,

Mary

"...gcf is not working on any of [the figures]"

Not sure what that means. gcf() merely returns the handle of whatever figure is current or creates a new figure if none exist. If you want to operate on a specific figure without manually selecting it, you can either use gcf() immediately after opening the specific figure or you can programmatically selecting it by matching its figure name, tag, or some other property or set of properties that makes the figure unique.

"findall(gcf,'type','ColorBar') does not return anything"

As long as you're using Matlab's builtin gcf(), and the current figure contains a colorbar, it should return the colorbar handle. If the current figure does not contain a colorbar, it should return an empty handle,

figure();  %create figure, no colorbar
findall(gcf,'type','ColorBar')
% ans = 
%   0×0 empty GraphicsPlaceholder array.

"... after I click on a given figure with a colorbar, the following command ... would not make the label of the colorbar of latex format. But the ticks are in Latex."

Yes, that command only affects the colorbar axes/ticks. Axis labels and titles do not have the TickLabelInterpreter property. I'm not sure why searching for findall(gcf,'-property','interpreter') doesn't identify the ylabel and title of a colorbar. Here's what you can do,

% Find handle to colorbar
cb = findall(gcf,'Type','Colorbar');
% set interpreter of label and|or title
cb.Label.Interpreter = 'latex';

It's gotta be something like that. What's odd is that when a ylabel is assigned to a colorbar, the label's parent is the colorbar but it does not show up as a child of the colorbar nor does findall return the ylabel when searching the colorbar object. Note that by default HandleVisibility for the ylabel is 'on'.

clf()
cb = colorbar(); 
yl = ylabel(cb, 'cb label'); 
yl.Parent
% ans = 
%   ColorBar (cb label) with properties:
% 
%     Location: 'eastoutside'
%       Limits: [0 1]
%     FontSize: 9
%     Position: [0.83048 0.11048 0.038095 0.81524]
%        Units: 'normalized'
% 
%   Show all properties
cb.Children
% ans = 
%   0×0 empty GraphicsPlaceholder array.
findall(cb,'-property','interpreter')
% ans = 
%   0×0 empty GraphicsPlaceholder array.
