orient orient portrait orient landscape orient tall
orient sets the PaperOrientation and PaperPosition properties of the current figure window. orient, by itself, returns a string with the current paper orientation, either portrait, landscape, or tall:
portrait orientation means that the paper is held with the largest dimension up and down (default).
landscape orientation means that the largest dimension is left to right.
tall orientation means that the figure maps to the whole page in portrait orientation.
orient portrait returns to the default portrait orientation with the figure window occupying a rectangle with aspect ratio 4/3 in the middle of the page.
orient landscape generates the output for subsequent print operations from the current figure window in full page landscape orientation.
orient tall causes the figure window to map to the whole page in portrait orientation.
