Brings figures that are off-screen back into view.

Category: Graphics > Graphics Objects

Syntax

findfigs

Moves every figure that lies outside the visible screen area onto the screen.

Description

Figures can end up off-screen after a monitor is disconnected or a resolution changes. findfigs repositions them so that they can be seen and moved. It has no inputs or outputs and does nothing to figures that are already visible.

Example

Recover figure windows

figure
plot(1:3)
findfigs

Notes

MatLivre draws figures inline below the code, so there are no windows to lose and the call has no effect.
