Control Panel (app) Features
- (Group Visibility tab) Toggle the visibility of chart objects in a figure by group
- (Plot Browser tab) See the hierarchy of ALL objects in a figure (the built-in Plot Browser does not show hggroup objects). Inspect and change properties of multiple objects by multiselecting nodes in the tree, right-clicking in the tree window, and clicking 'Inspect'.
How To Use Control Panel
1. Call the function 'setgroups' with a vector of chart object handles and a cell vector of 'groups' to pack each object with its grouping info. See the help comments for more info.
2. Call the app 'controlpanel' with a figure handle to link a Control Panel with a figure. Optionally, set the 'Targets' parameter with the same vector of chart object handles as above to enable the Group Visibility tab.
Compatibility
setgroups: R2016b or later
controlpanel: R2020b or later
