NAME

       mxdisplay-matlab - mcxtrace Graphical display of simulations using Matlab/Octave

SYNOPSIS

       mxdisplay-matlab [-hom] [-png|-jpg|-fig|-eps|-pdf|-tif] [–inspect=COMP] INSTR name=value...

DESCRIPTION

       The  mxdisplay-matlab  front-end  is  a graphical debugging tool.  It presents a schematic drawing of the
       instrument definition, showing the position of the components  and  the  paths  of  the  simulated  xrays
       through  the  instrument.   It  is  thus  very  useful  for  debugging  a simulation, for example to spot
       components in the wrong position or to find out where xrays are getting  lost.   To  use  the  mxdisplay-
       matlab front-end with a simulation, run it as follows: mxdisplay INSTR args... where INSTR is the name of
       either the instrument source INSTR.instr or the simulation program INSTR.out generated with mcxtrace, and
       args  are  the  normal  command line arguments for the simulation, as for mxrun.  The -h option will list
       valid options.

       The default plotting backend is mxdisplay-pyqtgraph, but there exists a  number  of  additional  plotters
       such  as  mxdisplay-matplotlib,  mxdisplay-webgl-classic  (using WebGL), mxdisplay-webgl (using WebGL and
       NodeJS), mxdisplay-matlab (using Matlab or Octave).  This is the Matlab/Octave plotting tool.

OPTIONS

       INSTR  Displays the given mcxtrace 3D model with its defaults/current parameters.

       name1=value1 ...
              Displays the given mcxtrace model with given parameters.

       -n N, –ncount N
              Number of particles to simulate

       [-png|-jpg|-fig|-eps|-pdf|-tif]
              Same as above, and specifies an output file format to generate.  Possible save_as  are  -png  -pdf
              -fig -tif -jpg -eps

       –inspect=COMP
              Same as above, and only plot component names that match COMP, given as a single component word for
              partial match, such as Monitor a component interval such as Monok:Sample or 2:10 or 2:end
