Properties of line objects (see line):
Callback Execution | Coordinate Data | Creation/Deletion | Display | Legend Options | Line Appearance | Marker Appearance | Mouse Interaction | Object Identification | Parent/Children
busyaction: "cancel" | {"queue"} ¶Define how Octave handles the execution of this object’s callback properties when it is unable to interrupt another object’s executing callback. This is only relevant when the currently executing callback object has its interruptible property set to "off". The busyaction property of the interrupting callback object indicates whether the interrupting callback is queued ("queue" (default)) or discarded ("cancel").
See Callbacks section.
interruptible: "off" | {"on"} ¶Specify whether this object’s callback functions may be interrupted by other callbacks. By default interruptible is "on" and callbacks that make use of drawnow, figure, waitfor, getframe or pause functions are eventually interrupted.
See Callbacks section.
xdata: vector, def. [0 1] ¶Vector of x data to be plotted.
xdatasource: string, def. "" ¶Name of a vector in the current base workspace to use as x data.
ydata: vector, def. [0 1] ¶Vector of y data to be plotted.
ydatasource: string, def. "" ¶Name of a vector in the current base workspace to use as y data.
zdata: vector, def. [](0x0) ¶Vector of z data to be plotted.
zdatasource: string, def. "" ¶Name of a vector in the current base workspace to use as z data.
beingdeleted: {"off"} | "on" ¶Property indicating that a function has initiated deletion of the object. beingdeleted is set to true until the object no longer exists.
createfcn: string | function handle, def. [](0x0) ¶Callback function executed immediately after line has been created. Function is set by using default property on root object, e.g., set (groot, "defaultlinecreatefcn", 'disp ("line created!")').
For information on how to write graphics listener functions see Callbacks section.
deletefcn: string | function handle, def. [](0x0) ¶Callback function executed immediately before line is deleted.
For information on how to write graphics listener functions see Callbacks section.
clipping: "off" | {"on"} ¶If clipping is "on", the line is clipped in its parent axes limits.
visible: "off" | {"on"} ¶If visible is "off", the line is not rendered on screen.
displayname: string | cell array of strings, def. "" ¶Text for the legend entry corresponding to this line.
color: colorspec, def. [0 0 0] ¶Color of the line object. See colorspec.
linejoin: "chamfer" | "miter" | {"round"} ¶Control the shape of the junction of line segments. This property currently only affects the printed output.
linestyle: {"-"} | "--" | "-." | ":" | "none" ¶See Line Styles.
linewidth: scalar, def. 0.5000 ¶Width of the line object measured in points.
marker: "*" | "+" | "." | "<" | ">" | "^" | "_" | "d" | "diamond" | "h" | "hexagram" | {"none"} | "o" | "p" | "pentagram" | "s" | "square" | "v" | "x" | "|" ¶Shape of the marker for each data point. See Marker Styles.
markeredgecolor: {"auto"} | "none" ¶Color of the edge of the markers. When set to "auto", the marker edges have the same color as the line. If set to "none", no marker edges are displayed. This property can also be set to any color. See colorspec.
markerfacecolor: "auto" | {"none"} ¶Color of the face of the markers. When set to "auto", the marker faces have the same color as the line. If set to "none", the marker faces are not displayed. This property can also be set to any color. See colorspec.
markersize: scalar, def. 6 ¶Size of the markers measured in points.
buttondownfcn: string | function handle, def. [](0x0) ¶For information on how to write graphics listener functions see Callbacks section.
contextmenu: graphics handle, def. [](0x0) ¶Graphics handle of the uicontextmenu object that is currently associated to this line object.
hittest: "off" | {"on"} ¶Specify whether line processes mouse events or passes them to ancestors of the object. When enabled, the object may respond to mouse clicks by evaluating the "buttondownfcn", showing the uicontextmenu, and eventually becoming the root "currentobject". This property is only relevant when the object can accept mouse clicks which is determined by the "pickableparts" property. See pickableparts property.
pickableparts: "all" | "none" | {"visible"} ¶Specify whether line will accept mouse clicks. By default, pickableparts is "visible" and only visible parts of the line or its children may react to mouse clicks. When pickableparts is "all" both visible and invisible parts (or children) may react to mouse clicks. When pickableparts is "none" mouse clicks on the object are ignored and transmitted to any objects underneath this one. When an object is configured to accept mouse clicks the "hittest" property will determine how they are processed. See hittest property.
selected: {"off"} | "on" ¶Property indicates whether this line is selected.
selectionhighlight: "off" | {"on"} ¶If selectionhighlight is "on", then the line’s selection state is visually highlighted.
tag: string, def. "" ¶A user-defined string to label the graphics object.
type (read-only): string ¶Class name of the graphics object. type is always "line".
userdata: Any Octave data, def. [](0x0) ¶User-defined data to associate with the graphics object.
children (read-only): vector of graphics handles, def. [](0x1) ¶Child objects for lines is not yet implemented for line objects. children is unused.
handlevisibility: "callback" | "off" | {"on"} ¶If handlevisibility is "off", the line’s handle is not visible in its parent’s "children" property.
parent: graphics handle ¶Handle of the parent graphics object.
