Thread Subject: plotting with LineSpec contained in vector

Why won't the following trick work for line specification?

t = 1:timeperiods;
line_colour = [0 0 0; 0 0 0; 0 0 0]
line_thickness = [1; 1; 1]
line_style = char('-','--',':')
for i = 1:num_files
plot(t,A(num_lables + 1:timeperiods + num_lables,i),'Color',line_colour(i,:),'LineWidth',line_thickness(i,:),'LineSpec',line_style(i,:))
hold all
plot(t,B(num_lables + 1:timeperiods + num_lables,i),'Color',line_colour(i,:),'LineWidth',line_thickness(i,:),'LineSpec',line_style(i,:))
end

This works in a similar fashion... there are some errors of index
exceed... but that should be fine... A and B are 5x5 matrices I have
defined.

t = 1:3;
line_colour = [0 0 0; 0 0 0; 0 0 0]
line_thickness = [1; 1; 1]
line_style = {'-r*','--mo',':bs'};
for i = 1:3
plot(t,A(2:1+timeperiods,i),line_style{i})
hold all
plot(t,B(2:1+timeperiods,i,i),line_style{i});
end

Hope this helps.

Thank you Parag, but it doesn\t appear to work as intended. The colours in the line_colour vector and the line thickness of in line_thickness vector now do not appear to be incorporated.

Any other ideas?

instead why dont you just plot the curves and if you want to just change the colors and thickness, you can control that from the editing tool box in the plot window. see the editing tool box window of the plot, you can find alot of things there

Ok. Above code can be easily modified to a complete working code:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
LineWidthCell={1,2,3,4,5};
MarkerCell={'+','*','x','s','d'};
MarkerEdgeColorCell={'r','y','b','k','m'};

for i=1:5
plot(A(i,:),LineStyleCell{i},'LineWidth',LineWidthCell{i},'Marker',MarkerCell{i},'MarkerEdgeColor',MarkerEdgeColorCell{i});
hold on
end
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Hope this helps.

Thank you very much Parag, much appreciated!
