how to open 3D figure always from the same angle (not the angle it appears rn)?

Hi guys and girls,

I'm pretty new to MatLab and i'm stuck. How can i open my 3D- rigidBodyTree from a different point of view than it is right now?

Is there an option f.e. that i can rotate die figure, then kinda "save" it and MatLab always opens the Figure from that position/angle?

Thanks a lot!

When you are rotating the figure manually, there will be current azimut and elevation displayed. You need to click the "cube + arrow" icon first.

As my explanation is not the best, I have made screenshot for you to understand easier:

You can write down these numbers and then use them to manually set your desired angle by view(azimut, elevation).

Examples of default angle and edited angle below:

% Default angle
[X,Y] = meshgrid(-8:.5:8);
R = sqrt(X.^2 + Y.^2) + eps;
Z = sin(R)./R;
mesh(X,Y,Z)
colormap gray

% Edited angle
[X,Y] = meshgrid(-8:.5:8);
R = sqrt(X.^2 + Y.^2) + eps;
Z = sin(R)./R;
mesh(X,Y,Z)
colormap gray
view(-23,28)    % setting the azimut and elevation from the numbers

Thank you :)

I've already tried to change camera position and so on that is kinda works, but your way is way easier :D
