One last comment: For high quality production figures you probably want to switch off (set the Visible property to off of) all rendered parts with transparency and save axes and labels as vectorized output, then reverse the visibility, i.e. To see that save the image and look at it with a suitable viewer. These are the two temporary images with white and black background. % temporary files test1.png and test2.png can now be deleted % load exported images back in and scale to % now our solution, export with two background colorsĮxportgraphics(fig, 'test1.png', 'ContentType', 'image', 'BackgroundColor', 'k') % black backgroundĮxportgraphics(fig, 'test2.png', 'ContentType', 'image', 'BackgroundColor', 'w') % white background % prints warning: Warning: Background transparency is not supported using white instead. % save as rendered output with transparent background not workĮxportgraphics(fig, 'test.png', 'ContentType', 'image', 'BackGroundColor', 'none') Set 'ContentType' to 'image' for better performance. % or it might contain unexpected results. % prints warning: Warning: Vectorized content might take a long time to create, % save as vector format, doesn't produce nice output see for example Įxportgraphics(fig, 'test.pdf', 'ContentType', 'vector', 'BackGroundColor', 'none') P = patch(fv, 'FaceColor',, 'FaceAlpha', 0.5, 'EdgeColor', 'none') įig.Children.Color = 'none' % transparent background of figure axis P = patch(fv, 'FaceColor',, 'FaceAlpha', 1, 'EdgeColor', 'none')

It would be easier if Matlab would support transparent background colors in rendered outputs, but this way works too. From a single output, image data and transparency cannot be restored but from two outputs with different background colors it can. The key is to realize that the saved rendered output of Matlab is transparency times image data + (1 - transparency) times background color. However you can get the transparency by saving rendered data with two different background colors (white and black for example) and then loading both temporary images, solving a simple equation system and thereby retrieving the transparency and the original color data and then saving that all into a RGBA png file. For exporting rendered data with transparency you can still not save it with transparency. Matlab 2020 with exportgraphics supports transparent background but only for vectorized output (with doesn't work with rendered content). But the result was the Figure was now transparent.Īs an addition to the answer by Memming.

Now you can use the eps file or you can convert it to pdf and then use it.Īnyway it will have transparent backgroundįor me it was two lines with re and two lines, despite me having %!PS-Adobe-3.0 EPSF-3.0 just after each other. (For level 2 search for string pr instead of rf) You will find in one line like this (four numbers followed by rf)Ġ 0 3025 2593 rf %Comment that line using %. The last number 3.0 indicates the Postscript level. (say Bspline.eps)ģ) Look at the first line. I stumbled upon this link, stating:ġ) In matlab file add the commands to format your figure with transparent background set(gcf, 'color', 'none') Īnd save or export the figure generated in eps format.

So I still wanted something simple that did not require me to install anything else (corporate pc not allowed :/).
