Batch figure export processing with uniform styling.

formatfig(varargin);
%FORMATFIG is used to modify figure formatting before exportation. It is
%based on exportfig (Ben Hinkle @MathWorks) but only some features of
%exportfig have been kept. Essentially, all the aspects of figure boundings
%and figure exportation have been removed. It has been found that using an
%eps export and then a file conversion is far more reliable to obtain a
%tight figure bounding. Many features have been added, including upgrades
%related to Matlab 7.x.
%
%CALL:
%
%   OPT_STRUCT = FORMATFIG( ...
%          FIG_HANDLE, [ OPT_STRUCT, ] [ 'PARAM_NAME', PARAM_VALUE, ] ... )
%
%   OPT_STRUCT: structure with fields .PARAM_NAME and values .PARAM_VALUE
%
%   NB: - for parameters present both in structure and list, the
%         values of the list will be used.
%       - the only required input is the figure handle FIG_HANDLE.
%       - if no parameters are given, OPT_STRUCT with default values is
%         returned.
%
%PARAMETERS
%
% FIGURE SIZE
%
%   width
%           Figure width in figure's PaperUnits. Positive scalar. Unchanged
%           or scaled: [] (default).
%
%   height
%           Figure width in figure's PaperUnits. Positive scalar. Unchanged
%           or scaled: [] (default).
%
%   refobj
%           Axes handle or string evaluating to an axes handle. If given,
%           'width' and 'height' are relative to the given axes. Default:
%           [].
%
%       Remark on width, height and refobj: 
%       Specifying only one dimension sets the other dimension so that the
%       new figure aspect ratio is the same as the figure's or reference
%       axes' current aspect ratio. If neither dimension is specified the
%       size defaults to the width and height from the screen figure's or
%       reference axes' size. 'PaperPositionMode' property is set to
%       'auto', so that the figure is displayed in real size (printed and
%       screen versions match).
%
%   activeposition
%           Conserved axes position during figure and/or font resizing:
%           'outerposition' (default), 'position' or [] (no change).
%           General guidelines:
%           - Use 'outerposition' to let Matlab adjust axes dimensions
%             automatically. Robust, but axes alignment and aspect ratio
%             will be lost.
%           - Use 'position' to maintain axes alignment (multiple subplots
%             or superposed axes). Might lead to label overlap if labels
%             are present between axes. Use 'adaptaxes' to correct label
%             clipping by figure frame.
%           NB: only for 7.x versions.
%
%   paperunits
%           Figure's PaperUnits property. Default: 'centimeters'. If empty
%           ([]), the PaperUnits property of the figure is not changed.
%                      
% AXES LOCKING
%
%   lockaxes
%           True / False (default) to lock all axes limits and ticks while
%           resizing.
%
%   locklimits
%           True / False (default): same as lockaxes but applied only for
%           limits mode.
%
%   lockticks
%           True / False (default): same as 'lockaxes' but applied only for
%           tick mode. Mostly useful when resizing fonts of LOG axis.
%
% RESIZING CORRECTIONS
%
%       Remark:
%       When resizing or increasing font size, a number of problems might
%       occur: clipping of axes labels, misalignment of axes, label
%       overlapping, non optimal legend positionning and so on. The
%       parameters given here allow a certain control on these problems.
%
%   adaptaxes
%           True / False (default) to adapt axes size and position to the
%           new font or figure sizes. This option can be used to avoid
%           label overlapping or cropping. The 6.x and 7.x versions are
%           different.
%
%       6.x version:   
%           Titles are not dealt with specially and may cause problems. Use
%           'rmtitle' to remove them. The power of 10 label should be dealt
%           with nicely. This option works if several plots are present on
%           a given figure, but it DOES NOT work with:
%               - 3D plots
%               - superposed axes
%
%       7.x versions:
%           If 'activeposition' is set to 'outerposition', Matlab should do
%           the job correctly, so that this option is mostly useful for
%           'position' mode. In any case, using this option will result in
%           testing that all the axes Position+TightInset are included in
%           the figure frame. If not, the figure margin will be increased.
%           This option has no controlled effect on the space between
%           subplots for 7.x versions.
%
%           Linked to: 'marginfactor', 'tight' and 'matchcolorbars'.
%
%   tight
%           To obtain the smallest possible figure margins (at least
%           in 'position' mode). 'tight' can be one of:
%
%           'x'     
%                   Keep figure dimension along x, adapt y to conserve
%                   axes proportion (at least in 'position' mode)
%           'y'     
%                   Keep figure dimension along y, adapt x to conserve
%                   axes proportion (at least in 'position' mode)
%           'xy'    
%                   Keep figure dimension along both x and y
%           []      
%                   Not tight (default).
%           
%           Remarks:
%           - 'tight' is applied after figure resizing so that the
%             dimensions that are kept are the dimensions given in 'width'
%             and/or 'height'.
%           - 'tight' is useful to control the exported figure width while
%             maintaining small margins (i.e. in combination with the
%             option 'eps_loose' of FIG2PUBLIC).
%           - In 'outerposition' mode, the margins will be tighter (but not 
%             the tightest) and the scaling will be approximatively
%             conserved. This is due to an impredictable behaviour of the
%             resizing function in this mode.
%           - 'tight' is less or not efficient in a number of cases:
%             3D plots, axes with equal and tight options activated, axes
%             with outsided legends.
%           - Linked to: 'adaptaxes' and 'marginfactor'.
%           - Only for 7.x versions.
%
%   marginfactor
%           A positive scalar (default 1) or a 4-column vector. Depending
%           on the size of 'marginfactor', the behaviour is different:
%           
%           Scalar:
%                   Used as a multiplication factor of the margin
%                   corrections determined in 'adaptaxes' or 'tight' mode.
%                   This factor might be useful to decrease or increase the
%                   estimated corrections.
%           Vector:
%                   Replace the automatic margin corrections by a vector
%                   containing custom corrections on each side of the
%                   figure frame, ordered as: [ left, bottom, right, top ].
%                   The values correspond to translations of the figure
%                   sides while maintaining the axes at a constant
%                   location. They are expressed in centimeters and applied
%                   to the figure obtained after the main figure resizing
%                   (i.e. the figure resized to match 'width' and/or
%                   'height'). The sign of the values matters: to increase
%                   the margins, the vector must be [ <0,<0, >0, >0 ].
%                   This option is useful to obtain a consistent resizing
%                   between similar figures (if 'activeposition' is set to
%                   'position').
%           Remark: 
%                   The vectorial version is allowed only for 7.x versions.
%                   It may have unpredictable behaviour for special
%                   figures, as described in 'tight' above.
%
%   matchcolorbars
%           True / False (default) to match the colorbars extent with their
%           related plot extent. Complementary to 'adaptaxes'. Should
%           always be used with 'adaptaxes' for versions older than 7. Does
%           not work for 7.x versions since the field linking colorbars and
%           plots has disappeared.
%
%   keeptextin
%           True / False (default) to keep the comment text boxes inside
%           their parent axes. Shift the boxes horizontally or vertically 
%           if they cross the axes boundary.
%
%   movelegto
%           If not empty (default), move all the legends to the given
%           location (see 'help legend' for details).
%
%   lockaxesaa
%           Same principle as 'lockaxes', but applied during the axes or 
%           margin adaptation process. Mostly useful when 'tight' option
%           is used, to avoid clipping of edge tick labels. Default: true.
%
% COLORS and LINE STYLES
% 
%   colormap
%           Apply a given colormap to the figure. If a string is given, it
%           must be the same input as the COLORMAP function of Matlab.
%           Otherwise, the color map array must be given. Applied before
%           the 'color' option in the execution of the code. Default: [].
%
%   color
%           One of the strings:
%
%           'bw'    
%                   Lines and text are colored in black and all other
%                   objects in grayscale
%           'gray'  
%                   All objects are converted into grayscale, with scaling
%                   based on the current colors, not on the current values.
%                   Set 'colormap' option to 'gray' beforehand if 
%                   necessary.
%           'bwtl'
%                   Text and lines are converted in black, other things not
%                   modified
%           'rgb'  
%                   All objects are left as given (Default).
%
%           Linked to: 'colormap' and 'stylemap'.
%
%   stylemap    
%           Specifies how to map solid line colors to styles. One of:
%           
%           []
%                   No style change (default).
%           'bw'
%                   Built-in mapping that maps lines with the same color to
%                   the same style and otherwise cycles through the
%                   available styles.
%           mls
%                   Matlab line style, as a string (e.g. '-').
%
%           fh
%                   Function handle. The target function must take as input
%                   a cell array of line objects and output a cell array
%                   of line style strings.
%
%           Remark: only SOLID lines are modified by this option.
%
% FONTS, LINES and MARKERS
%   
%   fontmode
%           'scaled', 'fixed', [] (default). If [], the fonts are left as
%           they are.
%
%   fontsize
%           A positive scalar. In 'scaled' mode, the font size of each text
%           object is multiplied by 'fontsize'. In 'fixed' mode, all the
%           text objects are set to the font size given by 'fontsize'.
%           If [] in 'scaled' mode, a scaling factor is computed from the
%           figure resizing.
%           Default: []. Units: points (in 'fixed' mode).
%
%   fontsizemin, fontsizemax
%           Font size limits in 'scaled' mode.
%
%   linemode, linewidth, linewidthmin, linewidthmax
%           Equivalent to fonts for lines.
%
%   markermode, markersize, markersizemin, markersizemax
%           Equivalent to fonts for markers.
%
%
% MISCELLANEOUS
%
%   customcode
%           Allow inclusion of custom code within FORMATFIG at different
%           places. A 2-element cell array is expected: {'location','code'}
%           
%           'location'  
%                   Specifies where the code must be executed. Choice
%                   between 'top', 'postHid' (default), 'bot'. 'top' places
%                   the code at the top of formatfig, 'postHid' at the top
%                   but after the handle identification section and 'bot'
%                   at the very end of formatfig. When using 'postHid', the
%                   handles are available by classes in variables like
%                   allLines, allText, allAxes (...), so that NO deletion
%                   command should be used at that place.
%
%           'code'      
%                   Any code given as character string compatible with
%                   EVAL() is accepted.
%
%           Example: { 'postHid', 'set( allAxes, ''color'', ''k'' )' }
%
%   rmtitle
%           True / False (default) to remove all the axes titles.

%  Modif log: (see file)

%
%       18.04.08    J.Rossel        Use a trick to avoid a bug in colorbar
%                                   management. If a text object containing
%                                   a string is related to a colorbar, then
%                                   its handle is reassigned to the label
%                                   field (x or y according to the
%                                   orientation of the bar) before
%                                   processing.
%
%       21.04.08    J.Rossel        Added the 'keeptextin' option.
%
%       22.04.08    J.Rossel        When using 'adaptaxes', the text box
%                                   units are set to an absolute unit to
%                                   prevent Matlab from randomly modifying
%                                   the box positions. The font scaling is
%                                   then applied and the units are restored
%                                   afterwards. Weird Matlab behaviour
%                                   anyway. 
%                                   Observable with log x-axis, data units
%                                   (xlabel shifted downwards).
%
%       29.04.08    J.Rossel        Added the 'lockticks' option.
%
%       29.10.08    J.Rossel        Corrected a bug in the exponent
%                                   detection
%
%       23.03.09    J.Rossel        findall has a bug in Matlab 7.8
%                                   Updating text units with findall looses
%                                   legends. 
%                                   Rem of 22.04.08 can't be reproduced
%                                   on 7.8. Combine both: remove the
%                                   process described in 22.04.08 for 
%                                   versions from 7.0.
%
%                                   results obtained for 'adaptaxes' with
%                                   large fonts were rubbish for 7.0 and
%                                   later. Use the new
%                                   ActivePositionProperty to replace the
%                                   whole functionality. Still colorbars
%                                   are not dealt with properly, but only
%                                   for figures generated on older Matlab
%                                   versions.
%
%                                   Bug for 'keeptextin' corrected. The
%                                   text boxes were not related correctly
%                                   to their parent axes.
%
%                                   'movelegto' option added.
%
%                                   'matchcolorbars' option added
%
%       14.04.09    J.Rossel        "oldactpos" undefined bug corrected.
%                                   That bug appeared in 7.x when calling
%                                   the routines with 'adaptaxes'=false.
%
%       17.04.09    J.Rossel        For 7.x, in special cases, the
%                                   automatic resizing does not work
%                                   properly: e.g. increasing fonts when
%                                   colorbar present and having long
%                                   colorbar ticklabels and colorbar text
%                                   labels. It seems that Matlab deals
%                                   better with figure resizing. So the
%                                   local function Local_AdaptAxes_7x has
%                                   been added. This also solves the
%                                   exponent problems (power of 10 being
%                                   clipped).
%
%       20.04.09    J.Rossel        Small bug corrected (appeared for
%                                   colorbars without labels).
%
%       10.06.09    J.Rossel        Modified options for coloring. Added
%                                   the 'colormap' option. 'stylemap'

    %Idea: to complete Matlab standard (usually ok for Outerposition mode but not for the Position mode)
    %treatment, make sure that all the axes Outerpositions are given within
    %the figure (if a label is cropped, the outerposition will go outside
    %the figure). So:
    %Loop on all axes and store the required additionnal length on all
    %sides of the figure. Add it with axes in absolute units, change units
    %to normalized and come back to original size.
    %The idea is to increase the relative size of the margins through this
    %process.
    %
    %New mode: marginfactor as a vector of absolute corrections in cm
    %to allow conservation of size between figures
    %
    %New (05.11.10): use position+tightinset instead of outerposition.
    %According to Matlab's help, in outerposition mode, it is not
    %outerposition that is used, but position+tightinset (... confusing!)
    %It is sufficient to keep position+tightinset inside. It doesn't
    %matter if outerposition is cropped. This choice is better, 
    %since it results in less margin and there is a more direct observation
    %of figure corruption (in some cases, outerposition might already be
    %bad on the original figure without any particular symptoms since
    %tightinset+position is ok...). This results in an additional
    %difficulty: just increasing the margin to fit the tightinset is not
    %enough, the figure reduction factor must be taken into account
    %otherwise the labels will always be cropped. This last point is
    %relevant only for 'position' mode.
    %

    %
    %New: now ok for legends outside axes. Necessary since these legends
    %   are not included in tightinset...
