Linestyle of matrix with plotyy

Hi, I am plotting two matrix with plotyy and want to change the linestyle of all the lines belonging to the first matrix. [hx,hL1,hL2]=plotyy(x,Y1,x,Y2) The problem is that the linestyle handle is the size of the lines in the matrix and I do not want to loop through them all. hL1.LineStyle = '--' does not work, gives

Expected one output from a curly brace or dot indexing expression, but there were 10 results.

I hope someone can help me.

Use set for multiple handles...

set(hL1,'linestyle',':')

Don't know why TMW didn't add the facility in the methods; if going to trouble to write them one would think they'd be useful for the real world cases, not just the simple ones.

doc set  % for details

Drill down for the arcane cases of multiple handles w/ differing values, etc., etc., etc., ... You can do almost anything desired via cell arrays as arguments.
