drag.m

Allows the user to navigate a 2D/3D plot similar to the Adobe "hand" interface.

Description

DRAG: Move around on a 2-D or 3-D plot.

When plot dragging is on, you can click and drag the axes around while maintaining the current level of zoom. In a figure with multiple subplots, pressing and holding the left mouse button drags around the currently active subplot, while pressing and holding the right mouse button drags around all subplots simultaneously. Double clicking with the left mouse button restores the currently active plot to its restore point, while double clicking with the right mouse button restores all subplots to their defined restore point.

Fantastic!

[Rick Auch]

Yes, fantastic. Very useful.

[Ju Zhang]

Should be included in Matlab.

[Boyko Stoimenov]

A must have.

[Mark Brown]

Truly EXCELLENT! This function should be in everyone's toolbox. Much better than the PAN.M function I submitted a few weeks prior.

[Murray Thomson]

Just what I was looking for. Many thanks.

[Christopher Wingard]

Thank you! I've been looking for something like this for a while now.

Very nicely engineered.
This should be part of MATLAB.
