hold

holds/releases current graph limits.

# Calling Sequence

    hold(cmd)

## Parameters

cmd

- string

## Description

HOLD ON holds the current plot and all axis properties so that subsequent graphing commands add to the existing graph. HOLD OFF returns to the default mode whereby PLOT commands erase the previous plots and reset all axis properties before drawing new plots. HOLD, by itself, toggles the hold state.

## Examples

    t=linspace(0,2*%pi,64);
    plot(t,sin(t));
    hold on
    plot(t,cos(t));
    hold off
