How to plot shapes in one figure

Dear all,

I'm trying to plot many shapes in one figure. I run my code many times and in each time I got a shape in a new figure. I wonder if I can get the shapes in the first one. I hope someone can advice me what to do.

Thanks

Use hold on

Hello Cris,

Thanks for replying. I used it, but I got the same problem. I'm calling a file like this many times so it gives many figures.

figure;

hold on

[ce]=PlotHo(z)

Please share enough code to create a working example. For example, what is PlotHo?

I have a set of points and I need to draw many shapes among them. I call the file (PlotHo) to plot one shape every time so when I call it again it gives me a new figure with the new shape without join them.

Share your code. You can either copy/past or attach your script using the paperclip icon.

You could also try going through Ch 9 of MATLAB Onramp, which covers plotting.
