26 Apr 2010	Drag and Drop Drag and Drop to and from Matlab Figure Author: Raphael Austin	Agreed that Lukas's statement should be a comment, not a rating. I would also like to know a cross-platform way of doing it, but have found none to date.
16 May 2009	Droste Effect Tool Apply the Droste Effect to an image using a GUI or function call. Author: Steve Hoelzer	Very interesting and fun.
07 Apr 2009	figuresc Create a figure scaled relative to screen size. It's an easy way to make non-default size figures. Author: Steve Hoelzer	How many times have you created figures and had to look up how to resize them. This removes all the thought process and let you get on with coding the interesting stuff ...
07 Apr 2009	subfigure Create a figure within a grid-based layout. Like subplot, but for figures. Author: Steve Hoelzer	Very useful tool for grouping plots. I've used it often.

27 Jan 2012	subfigure Create a figure within a grid-based layout. Like subplot, but for figures.	Reza Farrahi Moghaddam	Very good function! Here is a small modification to enable the user to choose the screen in case he has multiple screens (like dual screens). The fourth parameter, screen_number, is the number of the screen to be used. If it is 0, both screens will be used. The default value of 1 (the main screen). ----------------------------------- function varargout = subfigure(varargin) % Create a figure within a grid-based layout. It's subplot for figures. % % subfigure(m,n,p), or subfigure(mnp), divides the screen into an m-by-n grid of % tiles and creates a figure within the pth tile. Tiles are counted along the % top row of the screen, then the second row, etc. % % If p is a vector, the figure is sized to cover all the subfigure positions % listed in p. % % subfigure(m,n) creates a figure showing a m-by-n grid layout with tiles % labeled in the order that they are numbered by subfigure. This is useful for % planning screen layouts, especially when one or more subfigures will span % multiple tiles (when p is a vector). % % h = subfigure(...) returns a handle to the figure. % % Every call to subfigure creates a new figure even if a figure exists at the % location specified by m, n, and p. The existing figure is not made current or % reused. Existing figures that are overlapped by new subfigures are not % deleted. This behavior is dissimilar to subplot. % % Example 1: Four non-overlapping figures. % % subfigure(2,2,1) % subfigure(2,2,2) % subfigure(2,2,3) % subfigure(2,2,4) % % Example 2: Three non-overlapping figures of various sizes. % % subfigure(4,4,[1 13]) % subfigure(4,4,[2 4]) % subfigure(4,4,[6 16]) % % Example 3: Show the grid for a 3 x 5 layout. % % subfigure(3,5) % by Steve Hoelzer % 2009-03-25 % Screen_number added by Reza Farrahi Moghaddam % 2012-01-27 % Padding to allow room for figure borders and menus hpad = 20; vpad = 90; % Process input arguments switch nargin case 0 error('Not enough input arguments.') case 1 m = floor(varargin{1}/100); n = rem(floor(varargin{1}/10),10); p = rem(varargin{1},10); screen_number = 1; case 2 m = varargin{1}; n = varargin{2}; p = []; screen_number = 1; case 3 m = varargin{1}; n = varargin{2}; p = varargin{3}; screen_number = 1; case 4 m = varargin{1}; n = varargin{2}; p = varargin{3}; screen_number = varargin{4}; otherwise error('Too many input arguments.') end % Error checking if ~isscalar(m) \|\| ~isscalar(n) error('Gird dimensions must be scalar values.') end if m < 0 \|\| n < 0 error('Grid dimensions must be greator than zero.') end if any(p > mn) error('Position value exceeds grid size.') end if isempty(p) % Draw example grid using subplots p = mn; f = figure('NumberTitle','Off',...
