Managing multiple figures at once is now as easy as a single line of code, usually a single word:
TileFigures.m - tiles figures across the screen.
SpreadFigures - spreads figures across multiple screens.
It used to be Hell, openning many figures and trying to place them so you could see them all at once, or trying to find just the one.
Now i open as many figures as i like: 10, 20, 50, whatever. and then just type:
  • TileFigures; % to tile all figures across the screen
  • or -
  • SpreadFigures; % to tile all figures across all multiple screens
Helper functions (could be useful):
getMonitors.m - uses .Net to get & provide accurate windows-scaled monitors data. (will default to matlab groot on non-.Net platforms).
getMatlabMainScreen.m - identifies the screen Matlab is currently occupying.
