save a movement as a video

Does anyone know how to capture a video during the matlab running process. I mean, the file can be save as a video at the end.

Hi sarah,

You can use the “getframe” function to capture the current axes or a figure. Then use “writeVideo” function to write those frames to a video. Please note that a “VideoWriter” object needs to be created to which a video can be written using the “writeVideo” function. Please refer to the following documentation links to understand more about the above-mentioned functions:

getframe - https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/getframe.html
