Toggle and control display of graticule lines

h = gridm(...)
gridm toggles the display
of a latitude-longitude graticule. The choice of meridians and parallels,
as well as their graphics properties, depends on the property settings
of the map axes.
gridm('on') creates the
graticule, if it does not yet exist, and makes it visible.
gridm('off') makes the graticule
invisible.
gridm('reset') redraws the
graticule using the current map axes properties.
gridm(linespec) uses any
valid linespec to control
the graphics properties of the lines in the graticule.
gridm(MapAxesPropertyName,
PropertyValue,...) sets the
appropriate graticule properties to the desired values. For a description of these
property names and values, see Properties That Control the Grid section of the
axesm property reference page.
h = gridm(...) returns the handles of the
graticule lines. If both parallels and meridians exist, then h is
a two-element vector: h(1) is the handle to the
line comprising the parallels, and h(2) is the
handle to the line comprising the meridians.
You can also create or alter map grid properties using
the axesm or setm functions.
By default the Clipping property is set to 'off'.
Override this setting with the following code:
hgrat = gridm('on');
set(hgrat,'Clipping','on')
