Hello, I am trying to save the quiver plot as a .avi movie. I am including my code here:
hFig = figure;
subplot(1,2,1);
set(hFig, 'Position', [0 0 1000 1000]); % to define Figure Properties
stlgeometrie=stlread('gehause_Bmuster.stl');
geoplot(stlgeometrie);
axis([-200 200 -200 200 -200 200]);
view([0 0]);
hold on;
subplot(1,2,2);
set(hFig, 'Position', [0 0 1000 1000]); % to define Figure Properties
stlgeometrie=stlread('gehause_Bmuster.stl');
geoplot(stlgeometrie);
axis([-200 200 -200 200 -200 200]);
view([60 0]);
hold on;
for e = 1:length(range);
a=0.1;
subplot(1,2,1);
q1 = quiver3(x,y,z, a*mag_X(21,:)'.*cos(Ph_X(21,:)'+range(e)), a*mag_Y(21,:)'.*cos(Ph_Y(21,:)'+range(e)), a*mag_Z(21,:)'.*cos(Ph_Z(21,:)'+range(e)),0,'MarkerSize',3,'LineWidth',1.5,'MaxHeadSize',0.1);
subplot(1,2,2);
q2 = quiver3(x,y,z, a*mag_X(21,:)'.*cos(Ph_X(21,:)'+range(e)), a*mag_Y(21,:)'.*cos(Ph_Y(21,:)'+range(e)), a*mag_Z(21,:)'.*cos(Ph_Z(21,:)'+range(e)),0,'MarkerSize',3,'LineWidth',1.5,'MaxHeadSize',0.1);
M{e} = getframe;
Fz(e) = mag_Z(100,1)'.*cos(Ph_Z(100,1)'+range(e));
delete(q1);
delete(q2);
end
movie(cell2mat(M));
movie2avi(cell2mat(M),'MyMovie.avi','Compression','None');
When I use the following code, I can only see the video of second sub-plot and the video doesn't contain the video, but just a image of the second sub-plot. I just want to save the video which gets displayed because of the quiver command. I am also attaching my workspace variables with this query! Thank you in advance!

M{e} = getframe(gcf);
Note: this will capture the entire figure, including window decorations. getframe() captures an axes or a figure, but you are creating multiple axes so you need to save the figure.

I think it is time for me to go to bed (in a literal sense.)

Would be glad if you could get back to me tomorrow! :)
