How to save fig in a different folder

Hi! How can I make the folder where I want to save my figure vary?

This line works but I would like to create a variable for the folder so that I could decide where to store my fig.

savefig(figure(1),[pwd '/results/h.fig'],'compact');

I tried with fullfile but I think I used it in the wrong way.

Thanks

mydir='yourfullyqualifiedpath';
savefig(figure(1),fullfile(mydir,'results','h.fig'),'compact');

The above also has the hardcoded filename 'h.fig' which isn't all that flexible; depending on the intended use consider uiputfile to let the user select the location interactively.

There are many possibilities in creating automagic naming systems; just have to decide what it is you really want and that fits the particular use pattern.
