Hi,

I'd like to hatch some area within a figure. There is a file called
"hatch.m" on file exchange, but that is a little bit outdated. Anybody
got something better?

Thanks!
Armin

Hi Armin!

It works perfect for me in R14. Are there any features that you are
missing, or is it just that it was created using R11?

Well, the 'demo' mode isn't running any more.

Even worse, the hatch angles change under some odd circumstances after
calling:

contourf(pymm, -pxmm, sqrt(vx'.^2+vy'.^2), 0:10:60);
colormap(1-gray)
set(gca, 'ydir', 'reverse')
xlabel('Y in mm');
ylabel('Z in mm');
axis equal
axis tight
hnd = patch([0 28 28 0], [0 0 -13 -13], 'w', 'EdgeColor', 'none');
hatch(hnd, 45, [0 0 0], '-', 8, 1)
hatch(hnd, -45, [0 0 0], '-', 8, 1) % This should be orthogonal!
text(-24, -5, '\phi=0)

But that's more due to the automatic scaling of MATLAB. How can I tell
that I don't want to give away much space, but I want a quadratic grid?

Thanks
Armin
