auto-refresh ?
Authored by: shunker on Apr 05, '05 01:56:34AM

Yes, you need to re-export the figure with the print command, but then that line doesn't change, so if it pasted after the plot command, the PDF file is always current, and is then refreshed by TeXShop. As you said, the hint is nothing more than a way to print the figure to PDF and open it with a suitable viewer - I only wanted to emulate the similar behavior I was getting with Octave and Aquaterm.

Auto-refresh does not work for me

Just to let you know, I have to close the pdf file (in both cases using either Texshop or Preview) before I run the Matlab script again, otherwise it does not get updated, although the still-open pdf file is brought back in the foreground, creating the impression that it has been newly created and causing much agony on my side wondering why the hell Matlab is not adhering to any commands about the position of the figure on the page.

(Now judging from the length of the sentence, what is my mother tongue?)
