Hi everyone!

I'm plotting 3 force vs displacement plots in the same picture. For one of the lines in the plot, i'd like the color to gradually chance, so to be able to identify the change of the curve throughout the iterations. I would also like the legend of the figure to show a color bar which indicated e.g that the color becomes darker/lighter as the iteration progresses.

So far I have something like this (this is a pseudocode ofc):

fe = 1:0.1:100;
n_freq = length(fe);
for kk= 1:n_freq
    [r,z] = ode23s('Nonlin', tspan x0);
    x = z(:,1);
    F = z(:,2);
    F2 = z(:,3);
    
    Ftot = F + F2;
    
    figure(1)
    hold on
    plot(x, Ftot) %this is the plot which I would like to change gradually per each iteration of the for loop
    hold on
    plot(x, F)
    hold on
    plot(x,F2)
end

Can someone help me out? Thanks!

hello

this would be my suggestion , gray dark to light for one curve

I wonder if you overlay 3 curves at each iteration if it's not ging to be overcrowed

fe = 1:1:100;
n_freq = length(fe);
%% main code
map = colormap('gray');
[mmap,nmap] = size(map);
data_min = 0;
data_max = n_freq;
figure(1)
for k= 1:n_freq
%     [r,z] = ode23s('Nonlin', tspan x0);
%     x = z(:,1);
%     F = z(:,2);
%     F2 = z(:,3);
%     
%     Ftot = F + F2;
    % % dummy code demo
    x = fe;
    Ftot = k*fe; % dummy demo output
    
    hold on
    h = plot(x, Ftot); %this is the plot which I would like to change gradually per each iteration of the for loop
    % now define col value based on data value (min data value maps to colormap map index 1
      % and max data value maps to colormap map last index);
      ind = fix(1+(mmap-1)*(k-data_min)/(data_max-data_min));
      h.Color = map(ind,:);
end
% optionnal colorbar 
caxis([0,n_freq])
CBAR_ticks = 10*(0:ceil(n_freq/10));
hcb=colorbar('Ticks',CBAR_ticks,'TickLabels',split(num2str(CBAR_ticks)));
hcb.Title.String = "Iteration #";
hcb.Title.FontSize = 13;
