[…] In HG1, we could do this programmatically using extra line commands (presumably with the additional *LimInclude properties). In HG2 it becomes easier – we can simply update the relevant baseline’s properties: […]

[…] Different performance hotspots can have different solutions: caching, vectorization, internal library functions, undocumented graphics properties, smart property selection, smart function selection, smart indexing, smart parameter selection etc. […]

For anyone interested, there appears to be an anomaly when using the LimInclude properties with hgtransform: https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/newsreader/view_thread/295878#812396

Hi Yair,
Glad I remembered this tip. Had a plot with 50+ draggable lines on it that updated other plots. Much smoother when I remembered this tip and turned off the XLimInclude , YLimInclude for the draggable lines and the line plot they were updating.

Thanks
Matt

In reply to Matt Whitaker. exactly - thanks for the clarification example

In reply to Matt Whitaker. Ok got it now. So if I run the code below it illustrates the point:

cla;
t=0:.01:7.5;
lineHdl = plot(t,sin(t));
line('xdata',[7.5,7.5], 'ydata',[-5,5], 'color','r', ...
     'YLimInclude','off'); 
box off

pause(2)
set(lineHdl,'YData',2*sin(t));

In reply to Matt Whitaker. @Matt - that's exactly the point: I want the limits to remain automatic and be updated with the plot data - I just don't want some particular elements, like the wavefront line, to influence the limits. In your solution, if I now modify the plot data, the axes limits will remain fixed at they previous state.

Hi Yair, Thanks, I think this will be very useful when you have a lot of graphics objects on the axes but you know what the overall dimensions will be. I'll be trying this tip out right away. Perhaps you could expand on why you would use this in place of setting the YLImMode as in:

cla;
t=0:.01:7.5;
plot(t,sin(t));

lineHdl = line('xdata',[7.5,7.5], 'ydata',[-5,5], 'color','r'); 
set(gca,'YLim',[-1,1],'YLimMode','manual');
box off

pause(3);

%move the line
set(lineHdl,'XData',[10,10]);
