fullscreen.m

it makes you availavle to use fullscreen in matlab

function fullscreen(image,device_number)
%FULLSCREEN Display fullscreen true colour images
%   FULLSCREEN(C,N) displays matlab image matrix C on display number N
%   (which ranges from 1 to number of screens). Image matrix C must be
%   the exact resolution of the output screen since no scaling in
%   implemented. If fullscreen is activated on the same display
%   as the MATLAB window, use ALT-TAB to switch back.
%
%   If FULLSCREEN(C,N) is called the second time, the screen will update
%   with the new image.
%
%   Use CLOSESCREEN() to exit fullscreen.
%
%   Requires Matlab 7.x (uses Java Virtual Machine), and has been tested on
%   Linux and Windows platforms.

%   non-exclusive-fullscreen-capable screens.
