 15.2.6 Manipulation of Plot Objects
 -----------------------------------
 
  -- : pan
  -- : pan on
  -- : pan off
  -- : pan xon
  -- : pan yon
  -- : pan (HFIG, OPTION)
      Control the interactive panning mode of a figure in the GUI.
 
      Given the option "on" or "off", set the interactive pan mode on or
      off.
 
      With no arguments, toggle the current pan mode on or off.
 
      Given the option "xon" or "yon", enable pan mode for the x or y
      axis only.
 
      If the first argument HFIG is a figure, then operate on the given
      figure rather than the current figure as returned by ‘gcf’.
 
      See also: Seerotate3d XREFrotate3d, Seezoom XREFzoom.
 
  -- : rotate (H, DIR, ALPHA)
  -- : rotate (..., ORIGIN)
      Rotate the plot object H through ALPHA degrees around the line with
      direction DIR and origin ORIGIN.
 
      The default value of ORIGIN is the center of the axes object that
      is the parent of H.
 
      If H is a vector of handles, they must all have the same parent
      axes object.
 
      Graphics objects that may be rotated are lines, surfaces, patches,
      and images.
 
  -- : rotate3d
  -- : rotate3d on
  -- : rotate3d off
  -- : rotate3d (HFIG, OPTION)
      Control the interactive 3-D rotation mode of a figure in the GUI.
 
      Given the option "on" or "off", set the interactive rotate mode on
      or off.
 
      With no arguments, toggle the current rotate mode on or off.
 
      If the first argument HFIG is a figure, then operate on the given
      figure rather than the current figure as returned by ‘gcf’.

  -- : zoom
  -- : zoom (FACTOR)
  -- : zoom on
  -- : zoom off
  -- : zoom xon
  -- : zoom yon
  -- : zoom out
  -- : zoom reset
  -- : zoom (HFIG, OPTION)
      Zoom the current axes object or control the interactive zoom mode
      of a figure in the GUI.
 
      Given a numeric argument greater than zero, zoom by the given
      factor.  If the zoom factor is greater than one, zoom in on the
      plot.  If the factor is less than one, zoom out.  If the zoom
      factor is a two- or three-element vector, then the elements specify
      the zoom factors for the x, y, and z axes respectively.
 
      Given the option "on" or "off", set the interactive zoom mode on or
      off.
 
      With no arguments, toggle the current zoom mode on or off.
 
      Given the option "xon" or "yon", enable zoom mode for the x or
      y-axis only.
 
      Given the option "out", zoom to the initial zoom setting.
 
      Given the option "reset", store the current zoom setting so that
      ‘zoom out’ will return to this zoom level.
 
      If the first argument HFIG is a figure, then operate on the given
      figure rather than the current figure as returned by ‘gcf’.
