Last update : 10/10/2005

draw - draw an entity.

### Calling Sequence

  `draw()`
  `draw(h)`

### Parameters

- `h`: a handle, the handle on an entity to draw. `h` can be a vector of handles, in which case all objects identified by h(i) will be drawn.

### Description

This function can be used to draw entities specified by `h` even if its parent figure `immediate_drawing` property is `"off"`. If no argument is specified, the `current object` is drawn. Note that the window must not be resized ; if not, those objects are hidden back.

### Examples

       subplot(212)
       a=gca();
        plot2d
       drawlater

        subplot(211)
        plot2d1 // default drawing mode

        e=gce();
        draw(e.children(2)) // draw a single polyline of the second axes

        e.children(1).visible='off'; // We can choose to make a line invisible

        draw(e) // draw Compound and its children <=> draw all the visible polylines

        drawnow // ...now!

        e.children(1).visible='on';
