% BreakPlot(x,y,fmt,y_break_start,y_break_end,break_type)
% Produces a plot who's y-axis skips to avoid unnecessary blank space
%
% INPUT
% x
% y
% fmt: format string for plot
% y_break_start
% y_break_end
% break_type
%    if break_type='RPatch' the plot will look torn
%       in the broken space
%    if break_type='Patch' the plot will have a more
%       regular, zig-zag tear
%    if break_plot='Line' the plot will merely have
%       some hash marks on the y-axis to denote the
%       break
%
% EXAMPLE #1:
%
% NEW = 1;
% sampleTimes = [1:200];
% RPM = [600+rand(1,100)*500, 4500+rand(1,100)*2500];

% % BreakPlot
% str = {'','Line','Patch','RPatch'};
% for i=1:4
%    subplot(2,2,i);
%    if i==1
%        plot(sampleTimes,RPM,'r.')
%        title('Plot');
%    else
%        if ~NEW
%            breakplot_old(sampleTimes,RPM,2000,4000,str{i});

%        end;
%        title(sprintf('Breakplot %s',str{i}));
%    end;

% EXAMPLE #2:
%

以前回过一个类似的帖子,要用break plot的方法
我收藏的代码,略作了修改,加入了fmt参数来指定绘制线型
function h=BreakPlot(x,y,fmt,y_break_start,y_break_end,break_type,y_arbitrary_scaling_factor)
