Thread Subject: Figure size

Subject: Figure size

Hi,

I have images of size 360x240. I display the in a figure,
using a for-loop, creating a 'movie'.

The figure is bigger then the image. How can I set the
figure-size to be equal to the image which I am displaying?

I tried doing this:
figure('Position',[0,0,360,240]);

It works fine if I just try this command, but when I show
the images, it making the figure bigger...

"How do I get the print-out to be the same size as the screen picture?" - type set(gcf,'PaperPositionMode','auto') on the matlab command line, before printing. To restore the default behaviour, type set(gcf,'PaperPositionMode','manual')

Torvald, the Image Processing Toolbox function IMSHOW features a Border
property. It's on by default but you can override on call or change your
preference.
