These are Arthur Ward, Niko, LP Pakula, Ian, Daniel, Mukhtar Ullah and Brendan Sullivan. Several Matlab Central users have made helpful suggestions which have led to Panel being improved. If you are having trouble with this, let me know and I will prioritise incorporating an optimised solver. If you do not, Panel uses its own internal solver, which is not optimised for large problems and so it can be noticeably slow for complex layouts. If you have the Mathworks Optimisation Toolbox installed, linprog() is used, which is very fast.

Panel solves a Linear Programming (LP) problem to maximise use of space.

Or you can just call refresh() when you're done messing around with your panels. If you are having trouble, use panel's hold() function instead, which works in just the same way (see doc panel).

Matlab's hold() function messes up panel's control over font properties.

This will probably turn up in a later version it's not a core part of Panel in any case.

One feature has not yet been integrated into Panel 2 - that's engineering scales.

Integrated various suggestions from Matlab Central users.

Miscellaneous feature additions (support for resize callbacks, layout reveal information, axis group labelling/titling, and some slight improvements to the export facility).

Support for being a child and parent of other graphics objects (rather than just Figures and Axes).

#Subplot in matlab documentation how to#

In Panel 2, you tell Panel what to aim for (one margin setting only, per axis) and it figures out for itself how to do it. In Panel 1 you told Panel how to achieve the layout you want (rootmargin, axismargin, parentmargin).Neater, but different, interface, mainly as a result of the above change.Moved to a classdef single-file implementation.Upgrading users of Panel 1 will notice the following changes. Interation with other graphics objects (e.g.Labelling/Titling of subplot groups, rather than individual subplots.Coupled with the easy control over layout, this allows the generation of camera-ready artwork direct from Matlab. An important feature is WYSIWYG rendering to image files.Work in physical units (millimetres, inches, etc.) or relative sizes, where appropriate.Figure-wide control of rendering (font size, face, etc.).Easy rearrangement of layout, as opposed to sometimes tricksy subplot renumbering operation.

Simple control over layout, for rapid development of complex nested layouts - see example top right, thirty seconds work (see demopanel1).If you want to know how to do something in particular, try help panel/demo and look through the headings. If you are new to Panel, start with demopanel1, and work your way through until you grow bored. Detailed reference information is available through Matlab's documentation system ( doc panel) or at the prompt ( help panel).The more complete User Guide for Panel comprises a collection of demo scripts use help panel/demo at the prompt to see a list of the demos, and then use edit demopanel1 to get started.This page gives an overview of features, Layout covers how axes are organised within a figure, and Export briefly describes exporting to image files. These HTML pages provide a brief introduction to Panel.An example layout is shown in the illustration (click to enlarge).
