How to Increase the Size of the Graphics Window

Hi everybody! The code below gives me exactly what I need.However, I am unable to make the graphics window larger than the default size; who could help please.

% Graph of the Chuzymatics Result of , 2008-2014

clf

%Accept the time vector

year = 2008:2014

%Accept grade A inputs

A_score = input('Enter A grades, a 1 x n vector:');

%Accept grade B inputs

B_score= input('Enter B grades ,1 x n vector:');

%Accept grade C inputs

C_score= input('Enter C grades, 1 x n vector:');

%Generate the multiplots

plot(year, A_score, '-sk', year, B_score, '-og', year, C_score, '-*r','linewidth', 2)

set(gca, 'LineWidth', 2)

legend('A-Scores', 'B-Scores', 'C-Scores')

xlabel('Examination Dates')

ylabel('Total Number of Grades Obtained')

title('Graphical Display of Chuzymatics Grades:')

Which part of the graphics window do you wish to make larger? Are you just trying to "stretch" the figure but for some reason can't?

EXACTLY. I WANT THE FIGURE STRETCHED AND LARGER. THANKS

Try this:

% Enlarge figure to full screen.
set(gcf, 'Units', 'Normalized', 'OuterPosition', [0 0 1 1]);

Many thanks. It seems the code affected the fonts of axes labels and title; they are appeared smaller after printing. Strains the eyes to read!

You can also call this function to maximize the figure:

% Function to maximize the window via undocumented Java call.
% Reference: http://undocumentedmatlab.com/blog/minimize-maximize-figure-window
function MaximizeFigureWindow()
  try
    FigurejFrame = get(handle(gcf),'JavaFrame');
    FigurejFrame.setMaximized(true);
  catch ME
    errorMessage = sprintf('Error in function %s() at line %d.\n\nError Message:\n%s', ...
      ME.stack(1).name, ME.stack(1).line, ME.message);
    fprintf(1, '%s\n', errorMessage);
    WarnUser(errorMessage);
  end
  return; % from MaximizeFigureWindow()
