Hi, I've been doing a lot of 3D plotting and I have my code set up to have the option of certain view angles for consistency's sake.  I got the code directly from the 3D plot figure's 'generate m-code' option and just copied and pasted the axis/camera angle modifications into my code.

Now I'm trying to incorporate my code into a GUI but the axis modifications don't modify the axes it the GUI.  When I do something like gcf it applies the axis modifications to the entire GUI, thus making the entire GUI window into a 3D plot, not just the axes part that I want.  How do I direct the axis modification code to just the axes in the GUI?

All of the axis modification functions (axis, view, caxis, hold, etc) can optionally take an axis handle as its first input.

So for instance where you previously would write:
hold on
axis image
You should replace these with the handle to your axis as follows:
hold(myAx,'on')
axis(myAx,'image')

Thanks,
Sven.
