Purpose

Browser with thumbnail icons of all MATLAB figures.

Synopsis

figbrowser %creates or updates current FIGBROWSER window.
figbrowser(varargin)

Description

The figbrowser function creates a figure containing thumbnail images of all visible MATLAB figures. Clicking on an icon will make that figure the current figure and bring it to the front.

Input(s)

  • varargin = stands for variable length input list. This list can have have the following values.
  • (empty): (no input) Creates or updates current FIGBROWSER window.
  • ('focus'): Brings the FIGBROWSER window to the front and updates if figures have been created or deleted since last update.
  • ('hide):' Hides the FIGBROWSER window.
  • ('addmenu',h): Adds FIGBROWSER trigger menu to a figure with figure handle (h).
  • ('on'): Turns on automatic addition of FIGBROWSER menu to all figures.
NOTE: menu addition can be permanently disabled by modifying the enableautoadd option in FIGBROWSER. This option can be set using SETPLSPREF. When set to 'off', FIGBROWSER will only show up on GUIs that specifically add it themselves, no matter what FIGBROWSER command is issued. This option can also be modified through the "Figbrowser on All" menu item in all FIGBROWSER menus.
  • ('off'): Removes FIGBROWSER menus from all figures.
  • ('autodock','on'): Turns on auto-docking of standard figures on creation. Auto-docking forces any standard figure to be opened in the Figure window.
  • ('autodock','off'): Turns off auto-docking.
