DND is a complex issue that would be difficult to fit into a blog-type article, requiring quite a bit of effort. There are plenty of other low-lying fruits (so to speak) that I would like to publish before DND.In the meantime, you can read section 3.7 of my Matlab-Java programming book, which is dedicated to this topic. If you want a softcopy report about using Java DND in Matlab, please <a href="mailto:%20altmany%20@gmail.com?subject=Matlab%20DND%20report&body=Hi%20Yair,%20&cc=;&bcc=" target="_blank" onclick="var n='altmany'; var d='gmail.com'; window.open('mailto:'+n+'@'+d+'?subject=Matlab%20DND%20report&body=Hi Yair, '); return false;" rel="nofollow">email me</a> and I will send it to you for a small fee.If you have a specific issue that cannot wait, I would also be happy to provide you with my <a target="_blank" href="http://UndocumentedMatlab.com/consulting/" rel="nofollow">consulting services</a>. @Eric – Drag & Drop (DND) is on my TODO list, but I do not believe that I will get around to posting an article about this before the second half of 2012, or maybe even 2013.

I had been using one based on richtext.richtextctrl.1 that can be found on the mathworks file exchange, but it never worked on 64-bit operating systems. Now that I am using Windows 7), I am stuck.

Also, none of my information comes from official Mathworks sources (excluding what I find in the source files of course). I have made mistakes in the past, and I will probably make more mistakes in the future, and without official Mathworks feedback I will not even know that I have made some mistakes. So, everything that I report (especially about my hunches of future plans, as for HG2), should be taken with caution and skepticism. @Robert – I must say that I find Mathwork’s official response, directing you to the articles you mentioned above, both flattering and ironic.

It seems to do what you want if I have understood correctly, but to SVG not PNG. Note that MATLAB graphics will be bitmapped, not vectorized, in the SVG @Robert

I wonder if there is a chance to do it now using JAVA directly in Matlab through “import javax.swing.*”? I am not experienced with JAVA yet.

Do you see any scientific workaround? Thank Yair

Try to edit these files (they are probably simple m-files that you can edit in the Matlab editor) and find out. Don't be afraid to modify these functions to return the handles that you need. @Sergio – I do not know.

Cheers! Hi Yair,
do you have any clue about why the ezplot* functions, used under the symbolic toolbox, do not return a handler to the plotted object?
Cheers!
