How to update the available Frame Rate range when change camera ROI using IMAQ Toolbox?

Hi, I'm using IMAQ Toolbox with a PointGrey Chameleon CM3-U3-28S4M camera. This camera could achieve higher frame rate with a smaller region of interest (ROI), e.g. 13 fps at 1928×1448 px (full size), 25 fps at 1000*600 px.

In the FlyCaptureViewer ( provided by the manufacturer PointGrey), available frame rate range changed automatically just after I set the ROI.

In MATLAB, I can get the frame rate range with

propinfo(vid,'FrameRate')

However, When I run this function after I set a small ROI, it still return the original frame rate at full size ROI. It seems that propinfo doesn't query camera to update the new frame rate range.

>>propinfo(vis,'FrameRate')           % Get frame rate range at full ROI
set(vid,'ROIPosition',[0 0 100 100]); % Set small ROI
propinfo(vis,'FrameRate')             % Get frame rate range at small ROI

Hi Kun,

We are aware of this issue and it is under consideration for future releases.

Please contact Mathworks Technical Support for a workaround.

Thanks,
