Thread Subject: Don't display plot

Hi, I need to save some of the graphics I obtain from my
calculations.

After having stored my results in two matrix X and Y,
i do this in the following way:

for i=1:size(X,1)
plot(X(i),Y(i))
savefig(filename{i},'png')
%(you can find the savefig function in the FLEX);
end

The function works, but each times it show the figure i need
to save.

I would like not to display the plot at each iteration,
is this possible?

Thank you very much in advance!

Why don't you want to show them? To reduce the time it takes
to save the plots?
You can make the figure not visible like this
set(gcf, 'Visible', 'off')
You should only need to call that once before the for loop
(after creating a new figure).

Yes, I want to reduce time ^_^
(and I want to be able to keep working, while it's saving
the plots, but each time a plot is created it pops up!)
Thank you very much for your advice ;)
