R2016a default size of title and xlabel many large

Dear all,

I was using Matlab R2013b and in that version when I made a figure and saved using the command saveas when I run in the script, the figure always was save automatically proportional. Now I started to use R2016a and when I run the same script, the figure didn't stay proportionally. The default fontsize of the title and the xlabel was large. Is there a away of my figure stay proportional automatically just like in version R2013b? Why this is happening?

If you still have your R2013b installation, look to see if you had added a startup.m file that changed some of the root object DefaultAxes* properties.

Your question title states R2016b but the question itself references R2016a.

In R2013b I don't have a startup.m file. I corrected the error in the title, thanks!

R2014b introduced the "title-font-size-multiplier" (as well as label) for axes. See more here:

TitleFontSizeMultiplier

Also, R2016a made some (semi-drastic) changes to the way figures export. See the release notes for complete information:

R2016a Release Notes > Graphics > Printed Figure Size

Thanks Greg,

in the second link I found this command: matlab.graphics.internal.setPrintPreferences('DefaultPaperPositionMode','manual')

It solved my problem!

Glad I could help!
