Thread Subject: Save background color of figure in PNG

I changed the background color of a figure and want to save that figure as .png. Normally, background colors aren't saved. How can I change that?

I tried set(gcf,'InvertHardcopy','off'), but that didn't help.

Any ideas?

Export_fig, on the file exchange, saves figures as they appear on screen.

In my routines, I always set the figure first:

hfig=figure;

set(hfig,...
    'InvertHardcopy','off',...
    'Position',[200 100 769 576],...
    'PaperPositionMode','auto',...
    'Color',bgcol)

plot(etc........)


print('-dpng','MyPic')
