Our exportgraphics and copygraphics functions now offer direct and intuitive control over the size, padding, and aspect ratio of your exported figures.
- Specify Output Size: Use the new Width, Height, and Units name-value pairs
- Control Padding: Easily adjust the space around your axes using the Padding argument, or set it to to match the onscreen appearance.
- Preserve Aspect Ratio: Use PreserveAspectRatio='on' to maintain the original plot proportions when specifying a fixed size.
- SVG Export: The exportgraphics function now supports exporting to the SVG file format.
