set (MathScript RT Module Function)
Owning Class: plots
Requires: MathScript RT Module
Syntax
set(obj)
set(obj, name)
set(obj, name1, value1, ..., nameN, valueN)
a = set(obj)
b = set(obj, name)
Description
Sets the attribute value of a plot object. Plot objects include line, plot area, plot window, and text objects. set(obj, name1, value1, ..., nameN, valueN) sets the attribute values you specify for the plot object referenced by obj. If you do not specify an attribute name and value, LabVIEW returns all attributes and possible values for the plot object referenced by obj. If you do not specify an attribute value, LabVIEW returns all possible values of the attribute specified by name.
Inputs
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| obj | Specifies the reference to the plot object. |
| name | Specifies the name of the attribute. name is a string. |
| value | Specifies the value of the attribute. |
Outputs
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| a | Returns the names and possible values of the attributes. a is a string. |
| b | Returns the possible values of the specified attribute. |
Details
This function is not supported in the LabVIEW Run-Time Engine if you request an output from the function. Either do not request an output or remove this function from scripts before you build a stand-alone application or shared library.
Examples
X = [0:0.01:1];
Y = X.*X;
obj = plot(X, Y);
set(obj, 'Color', 'b', 'LineStyle', '--');
obj = axes;
b = set(obj, 'NextPlot')
t = 0:0.1:2*pi;
obj = plot(t(1), sin(t(1)));
hold on
obj1 = plot(t(1), sin(t(1)), 'ro');
axis([0, 2*pi, -1, 1])
for i = 2:length(t);
xx = get(obj, 'XData');
yy = get(obj, 'YData');
set(obj, 'XData', [xx, t(i)], 'YData', [yy, sin(t(i))]);
set(obj1, 'XData', t(i), 'YData', sin(t(i)));
