size(figure)=[1,1] Why?

Hello guys,

When i make an empty figure like hFig = figure, why size(hFig)= size(figure)=[1,1] ? Apparently the figure shown on the screen is not 1 by 1 pixels...

The figure command replies a handle, which identifies the GUI object uniquely. This handle is a scalar double, see:

figureHandle = figure
size(figureHandle)

You want:

figureHandle = figure;
figureSize   = get(figureHandle, 'Position')
