% IPLOT provides an intelligent plotting tool for LTPDA.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%
% DESCRIPTION: IPLOT provides an intelligent plotting tool for LTPDA.
%
% CALL:               hfig = iplot (a,pl)
%              [hfig, hax] = iplot (a,pl)
%         [hfig, hax, hli] = iplot (a,pl)
%
% INPUTS:      pl   - a parameter list
%              a    - input analysis object
%
% OUTPUTS:     hfig - handles to figures
%              hax  - handles to axes
%              hli  - handles to lines
%
% AO Plot Info
% ------------
%
% If an input AO has a filled plotinfo plist, then the options contained in
% therein will overide any other options. The recognised keys are:
%
%   'linestyle', 'linewidth', 'color', 'marker', 'legend_on'
%
% The possible values are all those accepted by plot.
%
%
% Notes on Parameters
% -------------------
%
%        Many of the properties take cell-array values. If the length of
%        the cell array is shorter than the number of lines to plot, the
%        remaining lines will be plotted with the default options. If the
%        cell array is of length 2 and the first cell contains the string
%        'all', then the second cell is used to set the propery of all
%        lines.
%
%
% Error parameters: If you give more than one input AO then you must
%                   specify the following parameter values in a cell-array,
%                   one cell for each input AO. Leave the cell empty to
%                   plot no errors. Each error can be a value or a vector
%                   the same length as the data vector. If you give and
%                   upper limit but not lower limit, then the errors are
%                   assumed to be symmetric (and vice versa)
%
%
% EXAMPLES:
%
% 1) Plot two time-series AOs with different colors, line styles, and widths
%
%   pl = plist('Linecolors', {'g', 'k'}, 'LineStyles', {'None', '--'}, 'LineWidths', {1, 4});
%   iplot(tsao1, tsao2, pl);
%
% 2) Plot two time-series AOs in subplots. Also override the second legend
%    text and the first line style.
%
%   pl = plist('Arrangement', 'subplots', 'LineStyles', {'--'}, 'Legends', {'', 'My Sine Wave'});
%   iplot(tsao1, tsao2, pl);
%
%
% 3) Plot two frequency-series AOs on subplots with the same Y-scales and
%    Y-ranges
%
%   pl1 = plist('Yscales', {'All', 'lin'});
%   pl2 = plist('arrangement', 'subplots', 'YRanges', {'All', [1e-6 100]});
%   iplot(fsd1, fsd2, pl1, pl2)

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

% DEPRECATED xmaths and ymaths in release 2.4

% 3) Plot two time-series AOs taking the square of the y-values of the
%    first AO and the log of the x-values of the second AO.
%
%   pl = plist('Arrangement', 'subplots', 'YMaths', 'y.^2', 'XMaths', {'', 'log(x)'});
%   iplot(tsao1, tsao2, pl);

% Math operations: You can specify rudimentary math operations to be
%                  performed on the X and Y data prior to plotting. The
%                  'all' keyword is also supported by these parameters.

% ERRORBARXY Customizable error bar plot in X and Y direction
%
% This function allows the user to plot the graph of x against y, along with
% both x and y errorbars.
%
% With 4 numeric arguments (x,y,dx,dy), error bar are assumed to be of
% same magnitude in both direction.
%
% One can specify lower and upper error bar with 6 numeric arguments
% (x,y,dx_high,dy_high,dx_low,dy_low).
%
% x,y,dx,dy,... must be vectors of the same length
%
% [hp he] = errorbarxy(...) returns respectively the handle for the line
% plot object and the line error bar object.
%
% It is possible to customize the line properties of the error bars by
% adding pair of 'field/value' fields (such as 'LineWidth',2) that can be
% understood by line. See LineProperties for more information.
%
% --------
% EXAMPLES
% --------
% X = 10 * rand(7,1);
% Y = 10 * rand(7,1);
% dx = rand(7,1);
% dy = rand(7,1);
% errorbarxy(X,Y,dx,dy,'Color','k','LineStyle','none','Marker','o',...
% 'MarkerFaceColor','w','LineWidth',1,'MarkerSize',11);
%
% X = 10 * rand(7,1);
% Y = 10 * rand(7,1);
% dx = rand(7,1);
% dy = rand(7,1);
% dx2 = rand(7,1);
% dy2 = rand(7,1);
% errorbarxy(X,Y,dx,dy,dx2,dy2,'Color','B','LineStyle','--','Marker','s',...
% 'MarkerFaceColor','w','LineWidth',2,'MarkerSize',11);
%
% This is a rewrite of the m-file errorbarxy of James Rooney, to add
% customizable line properties.
