11 Oct 2009	plt An alternative to plot and plotyy optimized for data exploration Author: Paul Mennen	Nitka's comment: "Perhaps, you can look into getting a easy switch for 'regular' looking plots in Matlab standard format." Hi Nitka. I'll bet you didn't bother reading the chm help file. Or if you ran the demoplt.m example you would have seen "gauss.m" which plots using the default Matlab colors. (Just include 'COLORdef','default' in the parameter list). I'm assuming that's what you mean by 'regular' looking, but I can assure you that plt gives you more flexibility in your color choices than the standard Matlab plot routine. (For example, in plot you can't set the grid color independently from the axis tick lables, which forces you into what many consider to be ugly overpowering grid lines). Try clicking on the "Help" tag in any of the example programs, then go to the 3rd section (command line arguments), and click on "Colors".

10 Nov 2009	plt An alternative to plot and plotyy optimized for data exploration Author: Paul Mennen	D, Jeremy	Great addition to Matlab! This program is a huge improvement on plotting data as well as interactively explore it. The help files and demos are also very useful. It is worth learning how to use. If you use multiple y-axes plots or large amounts of data or you just want to explore data in graphical format quickly then plt is for you.

28 Sep 2009	plt An alternative to plot and plotyy optimized for data exploration Author: Paul Mennen	Nitika	Thanks Paul, your tool is very convenient for quick look up of data. However, if you want 'journal' quality black & white plots, it requires a lot of work to make it look like you want it to. That way plotyy is easier to handle once you are able to get what you want on the right axes. Perhaps, you can look into getting a easy switch for 'regular' looking plots in Matlab standard format.
27 Aug 2009	plt An alternative to plot and plotyy optimized for data exploration Author: Paul Mennen	Liverpool, Mario	Very good job indeed Paul, ur a champion! thank u, now I have plenty of options to plot my graphs with!
24 Feb 2009	plt An alternative to plot and plotyy optimized for data exploration Author: Paul Mennen	Martinez, Luis	Very nice graphic tool. Easy to use and understand and very useful when dealing with graphics of different scales. Thanks Paul also for the advices in how to use 'plt', cheers.
