14-3
The setm function now more effectively resets the projection, clearing out settings that
were specific to the earlier projection, updating the map frame and graticule, and staying
in the same general part of the world (even when switching between azimuthal and non-
azimuthal projections).
Compatibility Considerations
You may need to change the way in which you reset various map axes properties, such
as Origin, FLatLimit, and FLonLimit after changing projections, as discussed in the
section Switching Between Projections in the Mapping Toolbox User's Guide. In many
cases it will no longer be necessary to reset as many properties.
Other Bug Fixes
Compatibility Considerations
• The default FLatLimit for lambert and lambertstd has been changed to [-45
45]. In previous releases, axesm produced huge map frames, due to the FLatLimit
default of [-90 90].
• The function gridm now returns handles to the line objects used to display the
parallels and meridians. In previous releases, a call to gridm using linespec or
property name/property value syntaxes returned empty.
• The function geotiff2mstruct no longer sets the maplatlimit and maplonlimit
fields.
• A reference ellipsoid set to a non-default value (via the geoid property) no longer
reverts to the default when the UTM zone is reset. For more information, see bug
report 459353 on the MathWorks Web site.
• The daspectm function now works for azimuthal projections and units of radians.
coast.MAT Data File Revised
Portions of the global coastline latitude-longitude vectors in the coast.MAT data file
have been revised to ensure proper polygon topology. The data edits comprise the
following:
• Replacing or removing various "bow-tie" and degenerate linear (non-polygonal) island
features.
• Opening a "pinched" section in the middle of Lake Balkhash in Central Asia.
