Compatibility Considerations
In earlier versions of MATLAB, you could do the following:
load geoid
worldmap world
contour3m(geoid, geoidrefvec, 10)
h = handlem('contour3d');
(The output h is an array of patch object handles.)
In R2010b, to achieve a comparable result, you can use:
h = handlem('contour');
(The output h is a handle to an hggroup.)
Changes in Finding Contour Label Handles
The documentation in R2010a noted 'clabels' as the string to use in finding contour
labels. This is incorrect and should be 'clabel'. The documentation has been changed
to 'clabel' in R2010b.
Syntax Changes for contourcmap
In previous releases, the contourcmap function had the following syntax:
contourcmap(cdelta,cmapstr)
Now, contourcmap accepts the colormap string by itself:
contourcmap(cmapstr)
Or the colormap string with cdelta:
contourcmap(cmapstr,cdelta)
Notice that the position of the two input arguments has changed. The cdelta argument
now appears after the colormap string.
In addition to this change in syntax, the contourcmap function exhibits some changes in
behavior:
