tightmap
Remove white space around map
Syntax
tightmap
Description
tightmap sets the axis limits
to be tight around the map in the current axes. This eliminates or
reduces the white border between the map frame and the axes box. Use axis
auto to undo tightmap.
Examples
Display Map of Africa With and Without Surrounding White Space
Display a map of Africa. Notice the white space between the map frame and the edge of the axes box.
axesm('miller','maplatlim',[-40 40],'maplonlim',[-20 60]) framem; gridm; mlabel; plabel load coastlines plotm(coastlat,coastlon)
Now remove white space around map axes.
tightmap
Tips
The axis limits are fixed. If a change in the projection parameters
changes the size or position of the map display within the projected
coordinate system, execute tightmap again. Also
note that tightmap needs to be re-applied following
any call to setm that causes projected map objects
to be re-projected.
The tightmap function performs no action
on a 'globe' map axes.
