kml.clear

Clears the current kml file, removing any previous plots

Contents

Syntax

k = kml('kml title here');
--- any plot code here
k.clear;
--- new plot code here

Description

kml.clear will delete any plot inside the current kml object, leaving it empty for future use. It will not delete any temporary file created on disk, such as images, nor will remove any .kml file previously saved.

Example

% Create a new kml object
k = kml('my kml file');

% Plot a sample curve to the kml, and open it in Google Earth
t = linspace(0,360,1000);
k.plot(20*t, 30*cosd(t/2));
k.run;

% Clear the previous contents
k.clear;

% Plot a new curve there, and open the new contents in Google Earth
k.plot(30*t, 90*cosd(t/2));
k.run;

This is the first plot

This is the second plot after clearing the kml object
