% % VECPLOTSTICK vecplotstick(x,y,u,v,sc,color,dotsize) % % routine to plot vectors. STICKPLOT scales the magnitude of % (u,v) by the magnitude of max(abs(u,v)) and then % to Q percent of the range of the domain (xin,yin) coordinates. % Initially, Q is 10. The input argument sc scales Q. % If sc=1, Q=10. If sc=2, Q=20. If sc=.5, Q=5. % % STICKPLOT overlays on existing axes, regardless of the state % of 'hold'. If there is no current axes, STICKPLOT draws a % new axes. % % x,y - vector origins % u,v - vector amplitudes % sc - vector scale; use '1' first time. % color - stick color; (optional, def = 'r') % dotsize - vector origin "dot" size (optional, def = 10) % % dotsizes are given in points where a point is 1/72 inches % The MATLAB default MarkerSize of 6 is approx. the size of a . % (period). % % Example call: stickplot(x,y,u,v,2,'r',10) % This will draw vectors at (x,y) with appropriately scaled % magnitudes (u,v), with the maximum vector size being 20 % percent of the domain exent, with red lines used % to draw the vectors, and with vector origin dots being % 10 points wide. % % NOTES: % STICKPLOT requires atleast 2 points and vectors. % STICKPLOT does NOT force the axis aspect ratio to be 1:1. % % Call as: hp=vecplotstick(x,y,u,v,sc,color,dotsize); % function retval=vecplotstick(xin,yin,uin,vin,sc,... vcolor,ds,sclab,scale_xor,scale_yor) % % Argument check % if nargin<5 error('VECPLOTSTICK must have atleast 5 input arguments; type "help stickplot"'); elseif nargin == 5 vcolor='k'; ds=10; elseif nargin == 6 if ~isstr(vcolor) error('color argument to VECPLOTSTICK not a string'); end ds=10; elseif nargin > 10 error('Too many input arguments; type "help stickplot"'); end if ~isstr(vcolor) error('color argument to VECPLOTSTICK not a string'); end if length(xin)~=length(yin) | length(xin)~=length(uin) | length(xin)~=length(vin) error('Length of x,y,u,v must be the same'); end if length(xin)==1 error('Length of x,y,u,v must be greater than 1'); end xin=xin(:); yin=yin(:); uin=uin(:); vin=vin(:); % SCALE VELOCITY DATA TO RENDERED WINDOW SCALE % RLs= get(gca,'XLim'); xr=RLs(2)-RLs(1); X1=RLs(1); X2=RLs(2); RLs= get(gca,'YLim'); yr=RLs(2)-RLs(1); Y1=RLs(1); Y2=RLs(2); % IF RenderLimits NOT SET, USE RANGE OF DATA % if(xr==0|yr==0) error('Axes must have been previously set for VECPLOT2 to work'); end pct10=xr/10; %FILTER DATA THROUGH VIEWING WINDOW % filt=find(xin>=X1&xin<=X2&yin>=Y1&yin<=Y2); x=xin(filt); y=yin(filt); u=uin(filt); v=vin(filt); % SCALE BY MAX VECTOR SIZE IN U AND V % us=u/sc; vs=v/sc; % SCALE TO 10 PERCENT OF X RANGE % us=us*pct10; vs=vs*pct10; % SEND VECTORS TO DRAWSTICK ROUTINE % hp=drawstick(xin,yin,us,vs,ds,vcolor); set(hp(1),'UserData',[xin yin uin vin]); set(hp,'Tag','vectors'); mainax=gca; % Draw vector scale data_axis=axis; cur_units=get(gca,'Units'); set(gca,'Units','normalized'); axnorm=get(gca,'Position'); xstart=axnorm(1)+axnorm(3)*.8; ystart=axnorm(2); dx=axnorm(3)*.2; dy=axnorm(4)*.1; %scale_axes=axes('Units','normalized','Position',[xstart ystart dx dy]); scale_axes=axes('Units','normalized','Position',[0 0 dx dy]); set(scale_axes,'XTick',[],'YTick',[]) set(scale_axes,'Tag','vecscaleaxes'); set(scale_axes,'ButtonDownFcn','movescaleaxes(1)'); dx1=data_axis(1)+(data_axis(2)-data_axis(1))*.8; dx2=data_axis(2); dy1=data_axis(3); dy2=data_axis(3)+(data_axis(4)-data_axis(3))*.1; axis([dx1 dx2 dy1 dy2]) sc_or_x=dx1+(dx2-dx1)/10; ht1=drawstick(sc_or_x,(dy1+dy2)/2.05,pct10,0.,10,vcolor); set(ht1,'Tag','scalearrow'); sctext=[num2str(sc) sclab]; scaletext=text((dx1+dx2)/2,(dy1+dy2)/1.95,sctext); set(scaletext,'HorizontalAlignment','center'); set(scaletext,'VerticalAlignment','middle'); set(scaletext,'Tag','scaletext'); drawnow axes(mainax) set(scale_axes,'Visible','on') % OUTPUT HANDLES IF DESIRED % if nargout==1,retval=hp;,end % % Brian O.
