    %% Move Group of Objects Along Line
% This example shows how to move a group of objects together along a line
% using transforms.

%%
% Plot a sine wave and set the axis limits mode to manual to avoid 
% recalculating the limits during the animation loop.
x = linspace(-6,6,1000);
y = sin(x);
plot(x,y)
axis manual

%%
% Create a transform object and set its parent to the current axes. Plot a
% marker and a text annotation at the beginning of the line. Use the
% |num2str| function to convert the _y_-value at that point to text. Group
% the two objects by setting their parents to the transform object.
ax = gca;
h = hgtransform('Parent',ax); 
hold on
plot(x(1),y(1),'o','Parent',h); 
hold off
t = text(x(1),y(1),num2str(y(1)),'Parent',h,...
    'VerticalAlignment','top','FontSize',14);

%%
% Move the marker and text to each subsequent point along the line by
% updating the |Matrix| property of the transform object. Use the x and y
% values of the next point in the line and the first point in the line to
% determine the transform matrix. Update the text to match the _y_-value as
% it moves along the line. Use |drawnow| to display the updates to the
% screen after each iteration.
for k = 2:length(x)
    m = makehgtform('translate',x(k)-x(1),y(k)-y(1),0);
    h.Matrix = m;
    t.String = num2str(y(k));
    drawnow
end
%%
% The animation shows the marker and text moving together along the line.
%% 
% If you have a lot of data, you can use |drawnow limitrate| instead of
% <docid:matlab_ref.f56-719157> for a faster animation. However, |drawnow
% limitrate| might not draw every update on the screen.
