Set Matlab camera View (Mostly Zoom)

Question

So I have a program in matlab that makes a movie. The movie is made up of frames that look like this: Now the camera angle is set by doing this: ``` campos(1.0e+002 *[1.317650052908556 -1.507231720261665 0.834498724031213]); ``` Those numbers are used by rotating to the correct view with the camera toolbar then using the command: ``` get(gca, 'CameraPosition') ``` Now I want to set the zoom of the camera. How can I do this? Note: Zooming to the correct position and doing the `get` command described above does not return anyhting differant. It is the same for all zoom positions.

Accepted Answer

You can use the property `CameraViewAngle` to control the zoom of the camera, e.g.

```
set(gca, 'CameraViewAngle', 0.5)
```

to set an angle or

```
get(gca, 'CameraViewAngle')
```

to query the current view angle.
