Thread Subject: image() and imshow()

Hello
If I use the
figure;
imshow(<pic>);
I see that the figure window automatically modifies itself
so that the pictures aspect ratio are preserved and the
image doesnot look stretched out or it does not
necessarily fill the axis created intially by the figure
window. I get the image shown in its true aspect ratio and
resolution.But, if I use the ;
figure;
image(<pic>);
I see that the picture accomodates itself in the figures
axis and the aspect ratio and the original resolution is
lost.
How can we make the image() imitate the imshow()
Thanks
Vihang

axis equal

Dear Walter
This does not give me the desired results.

For example
Download the image found here
http://bit.uni-koblenz.de/vibi/images/thumbs/t_lenna.jpg

I = imread('t_lenna.jpg');
figure,imshow(I); %displays me the image the same size as
% the original
figure,image(I);
axis equal; %does not show me the actual size of the image.
%Image does not resize the figure window

Nope that doesnt work either. I thing I am not able to
propogate my question properly.
Please try the following;

Download the image found here
http://bit.uni-koblenz.de/vibi/images/thumbs/t_lenna.jpg

I = imread('t_lenna.jpg');
figure,imshow(I); %displays me the image the same size as
% the original, as can be seen either in MSPAINT or Windows
% Picture and Fax Viewer
figure,image(I);
axis equal;
axis image; %none of these show me the way imshow shows the
%image
%Image does not resize the figure window

I = imread('t_lenna.jpg');
figure,imshow(I);
figure,image(I);
truesize;
axis off;

Dear Volkan

Yes, truesize is what I was looking for. Thank You.

it worked for me. i only used axis image (didn't type axis equal before that)
but it only makes the dimensional ratios correct. the output image is smaller than the original one.
truesize gives the original sizes image.
