show image independently

i was building a program for capturing image from webcam, and show it using imshow(image) but suddenly after the image is captured, the image is shown in the part of gui, what i mean is to show the image independently, help me guys! thx!

imshow displays the image in the current AXES-object. I assume "showing the image independently" means to display it in a new figure. Then:

newFigureH = figure;
newAxesH = axes('Parent', newFigureH);
imshow(rand(100, 100, 3), 'Parent', newAxesH);

yes you got what i meant, but when i comitted the code it's shown this error:

??? Error using ==> axes

Invalid object handle

Error in ==> file at 61

newAxesH = axes('Parent', newFigureH);

[Jan]

And why is newFigureH invalid? Did you insert the "newFigureH=figure" line above? Did you close the new figure?

[Izzo]

i don't know, i assume 'figure' is the image right? maybe if you know simpler code

[Image Analyst]

How can you not know? Do you have that line or not? Yes or no? That line creates a brand new, separate figure window. You need that, so look for it!

[Izzo]

yes i have that line of course, but i dont know why the axes is invalid

here is my code

newFigureH = img;

newAxesH = axes('Parent', newFigureH);

imshow(rand(100, 100, 3), 'Parent', newAxesH);

img is the image that i want to show

No, Izzo, where Jan showed "figure" you require a figure number, and cannot use an image handle. An image is a single bit-mapped drawing such as a photograph, and cannot contain any other objects (except an annotation object.)

If img is the image you want to show, then you need to adapt Jan's example to

newFigureH = figure;

newAxesH = axes('Parent', newFigureH);

imshow(img, 'Parent', newAxesH);

[Izzo]

right it works! thank you very much for you guys help
