How can I set the window size of a plot window?

Is it possible to set the window size / position of a plot window (figure)?

plot(0:20, sin(0:20))

Or is there any other possibility to change the size of the print() command?

print('aa.png', '-dpng')

Because the -Sxsize,ysize parameter doesn't change anything. The size of the written picture (aa.png) has always the same size as the plot window.

I'm using Octave 3.0.

As of octave version 4.2.2, the following works, as pointed out by Janusz Lenar:

print('filename.png', '-dpng', '-S1280,720');

Which scales the figure to create a 1280x720 pixel image.

Yes, it is possible:

figure(1, 'position',[startx,starty,width,height]);
plot(0:20,sin(0:20));

[startx,starty] are the coordinates for the lower left corner of your figure (window).

You can also use the resolution option of the print function

print('aa.png','-dpng','-r300');

I guess the first solution might be better...

You can use the code below if you want to maximize:

figure(1,"position",get(0,"screensize"))
