plot export - solid lines aren't smooth
in [Matlab]

From: Brian Richardson on 1 May 2010 09:05 Hi, I'm running into a problem when exporting figures to any format. The solid lines in the plot have notches cut out. http://i349.photobucket.com/albums/q365/spudz11/plot_problem.jpg check the above link for an example picture of the problem. Any ideas what may be causing this? Thanks in advance, Brian

They would help. Try changing the renderer used (painters, opengl or zbuffer). You could also try export_fig (http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/23629-exportfig), again trying all 3 renderers. HTH, Oliver
From: Brian on 1 May 2010 14:24 so far, i'm just using file>export setup>export option to save output files. Using that option, i've tried the custom renderer and selected painters, opengl or zbuffer all with the same resulting output. My dpi setting is 600. I'll try the export_fig... but do you have any suggestions why exporting my figures isn't working? Thanks, Brian
From: Brian on 1 May 2010 14:28 sorry... with painters and zbuffer don't handle the alpha transparency well, so the plots look altogether different. The whole shaded area becomes solid. so... using openGL still leads to the problems. Brian

Let us know if export_fig does any better. Oliver |
