What is wrong with my code.I want to connect stars(*)by straight line,but it's printing only points,not line!

1 view (last 30 days)
function draw_constellations
set(gcf,'color','m');
set(gca,'color','m');
axis([0 100 0 100])
hold on;
while 1
[x,y,button]=ginput(1);
switch button
case 1
plot(x,y,'w*-');
case{'q','Q'}
break;
end
end
end

You're creating one line per ginput call, plotting one point per line. They're not all the same line object so they're not connected. I would create an animatedline object before entering the while loop and addpoints to it inside.
h = animatedline('Marker', '*', 'LineStyle', '-');
while 1
[x,y,button]=ginput(1);
switch button
case 1
addpoints(h, x, y);
case{'q','Q'}
break;
end
end
