[matlab] How to change the window title of a MATLAB plotting figure?

I have created a MATLAB plotting with the plot() function. How do I change the window title of the generated figure of the plotting?

My MATLAB m-file which I'm working on:

title('My plot title');
xlabel('My x-axis title');
ylabel('My y-axis title');

Its output figure is:

How do I change the window title of this plot?

What command do I add, and/or what modifications should I do to change it?

It can also be done this way:

figure(xx);
set(gcf, 'name', 'Name goes here')

gcf gets the current figure handle.

If you do not want to include that your code script (as advised by others above), then simply you may do the following after generating the figure window:

1. Go to "Edit" in the figure window

2. Go to "Figure Properties"

3. At the bottom, you can type the name you want in "Figure Name" field. You can uncheck "Show Figure Number".

That's all.

Good luck.

You need to set figure properties.

At the very beginning of the script, call

figure('name','something else')

Calling figure is a good thing, anyway, because without it, you always plot into the same window, and sometimes you may want to compare two windows side-by-side.

Alternatively, you can store the figure's handle by calling

figH = figure;

so that you can later change the figure properties to your liking (the 'numberTitle' property setting eliminates the "figure X" text)

set(figH,'Name','something else','NumberTitle','off')

Have a look at the figure properties in the MATLAB documentation to see what else you can change if you want.
