Qn regarding Matlab Montage

Is it possible to generate a montage of images with some spacing in between ? My images are really small so it would look better if I am able to add some gap in between the images.

Hi,

yes, it is possible. This is just a basic example:

 mont(:,1:500) = I1;
 mont(:,550:1049) = I2;
 mont(550:1049,1:500) = I3;
 mont(550:1049,550:1049) = I4;

 figure,imshow(mont)

Clearly this is a brute syntax, it refers to grayscale images of size 500x500 pixel, with a gap of 50 pixel between them. You have to adjust it depending on:

- the sizes and the number of your images, depending on these you can also define the indices of "mont" through a for cycle and preallocate the "mont" matrix;

- the format of your images (rgb or grayscale);

- the dimension of the gap you want;

- the color of the gap you want.

This solution is to create a single image concatenating a lot of images. However, if you need only to view all images in a single screen, without creating a new image, also the "subplot" function could be helpful for you:

The subplot function, with a for loop was exactly what I needed. Thanks !!
