Undocumented plot marker types
Undocumented plot marker styles can easily be accesses using a hidden plot-line property.
Hidden property
Matlab toolstrip – part 4 (control customization)
Matlab toolstrip components (controls) can be customized in various ways, including user-defined callbacks.
Customizing contour plots part 2
Matlab contour labels' color and font can easily be customized.
Customizing axes part 5 – origin crossover and labels
The axes rulers (axles) can be made to cross-over at any x,y location within the chart.
Figure window customizations
Matlab figure windows can be customized in numerous manners using the underlying Java Frame reference.
Customizing contour plots
Contour labels, lines and fill patches can easily be customized in Matlab HG2.
Figure keypress modifiers
The figure's CurrentModifier property provides a simple and consistent way to retrieve keypress modifiers: alt-, control- and shift-clicks.
Using linkaxes vs. linkprop
linkaxes has a built-in limitation, so using linkprop may sometimes be beneficial.
Undocumented view transformation matrix
Matlab's view function returns an undocumented output transformation matrix.
Transparent legend
Matlab chart legends are opaque be default but can be made semi- or fully transparent.
