Create a surface plot that uses the default colormap. Then rotate the colormap by one row for five seconds.

surf(peaks);
colorbar
spinmap(5,1)

Surface plot and adjacent colorbar that display the parula colormap

Input Arguments

collapse all

Rotation duration, specified as a scalar numeric value or 'inf'. A numeric value specifies the number of seconds to rotate the colormap. A value of 'inf' makes the colormap rotate indefinitely.

Rotation amount, specified as a numeric scalar value. The first rotation shifts each color in the colormap by n rows. Subsequent rotations shift the colormap by an additional n rows.

Positive values increment the rows, where the last color wraps to the first row. A negative value decrements the rows, where the first color wraps to the last row.

Tips

Press Ctrl+C to interrupt the rotation before t has elapsed.
